Wage board recommends $7.50 tipped minimum wage in New York

That's the recommendation of a state wage board after months of hearings and meetings to discuss raising the tipped minimum wage from the current $5 an hour, according to a spokesman for the state Department of Labor. If tips don't bring workers' hourly wages up to the statewide minimum wage of $8.75 an hour, employers are supposed to make up the gap.
