You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

It would be improper for the employer to keep everyone's tips for an error of one employee. If the total amount being withheld from everyone is substantial overall, you may wish to discuss this with an employment lawyer to see if they might be interested in representing you in pursuing a claim against the employer.
