After section 27C of the Employment Rights Act 1996 insert—

(2)Where a worker is allocated an amount of employer-received tips in accordance with subsection (1), that amount is payable to the worker by the employer.
(3)In determining what would be a fair allocation of qualifying tips, gratuities and service charges under this section or section 27E (non-public places of business), regard must be had to the relevant provisions of any code of practice issued under this Part.
(4)See also sections 27E (non-public places of business) and 27F (independent troncs).
(1)This section applies where—
(a)qualifying tips, gratuities and service charges are paid at, or are otherwise attributable to, a non-public place of business of an employer (the “non-public tips”), and
(b)the employer also has one or more public places of business.
(2)The employer may comply with the requirement in section 27D(1) to ensure that the total amount of the non-public tips is allocated fairly between workers of the employer at the non-public place of business by instead ensuring that the total amount of the non-public tips is allocated fairly between both—
(a)workers of the employer at the non-public place of business, and
(b)workers of the employer at one or more public places of business of the employer.
(3)In this section—
“non-public place of business” means a place of business that is not a public place of business;
