Información general sobre el salario mínimo con propina en EE. UU.
Antes de brindar información objetiva sobre los salarios mínimos con propinas por estado, primero revisaremos la información general que debe saber sobre este tema y repasaremos las siguientes preguntas:
- ¿Quién cumple los requisitos para ser un empleado con propina?
- ¿Qué se considera una propina?
- ¿Cómo funcionan salarios con propina?
- ¿Cuál es el salario mínimo federal con propina para los empleados?
¿Quién cumple los requisitos para ser un empleado con propina?
El Departamento de Trabajo de EE. UU. (DOL) define a los empleados que reciben propinas como aquellos que regularmente reciben más de $30 en propinas por mes durante su trabajo.
Algunos ejemplos de empleados que reciben propina incluyen:
- Bármanes,
- Camareros,
- Conductores de entrega,
- Peluqueros y posiciones similares, la mayoría de los que pertenecen a la industria de servicio.
¿Qué se considera una propina?
Según el Servicio de Impuestos Internos (IRS, por sus siglas en inglés), las propinas son pagos opcionales o adicionales que los clientes dan a los empleados como muestra de agradecimiento por sus servicios.
El IRS clasifica las propinas como:
- Las propinas recibidas a través del salario electrónico por los consumidores (tarjeta de crédito, tarjeta de débito, tarjeta de regalo, etc.),
- Las propinas en efectivo de los consumidores,
- Las propinas recibidas de otros empleados (a través de un fondo común de propinas, división de propinas o otro acuerdo formal o informal de la división de las propinas),
- Las propinas no monetarias, como por ejemplo billetes.
¿Cómo funcionan salarios con propina?
En los EE.UU, un salario con propina es el salario base pagado a los empleados que reciben una porción significativa de su compensación de las propinas.
El Departamento de Trabajo de los EE. UU. establece que un empleador sólo está obligado a pagarle a un empleado que recibe propinas $2,13 por hora en salarios directos si el empleado gana al menos el salario mínimo federal combinado con propinas.
En otras palabras, si ganas un total de $7,25 por hora o más, tu empleador puede pagarte el salario mínimo federal de propinas de $2,13 por hora porque tus propinas cubren la cantidad necesaria para alcanzar el salario mínimo federal.

¿Cuál es el salario mínimo federal con propina para los empleados?
The federal minimum wage for tipped employees is $2.13 per hour. However, with their tips combined, tipped employees must earn at least the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
Here’s an example. A server named Lucy made $10 in tips during her 5-hour shift, and her hourly rate is $2.13. She made $20.65 in total wages for the day:
$2.13 x 5 hours = $10.65 (the amount Lucy earned for 5 hours)
$10.65 + $10 in tips = $20.65 (Lucy’s total wages for the day)
When we divide her total wages for the day ($20.65) by 5 hours worked, we see that Lucy made $4.13 per hour, which is below the federal minimum of $7.25 required by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Federal law mandates that the employer must compensate the employee for the difference if the employee’s tips combined with their direct wages of at least $2.13 per hour don’t equal the federal minimum hourly wage.
Entonces, echamos un vistazo a cómo el empleador de Lucy calcula la diferencia:
$7.25 per hour – $4.13 per hour Lucy made = $3.12 per hour (the amount Lucy’s employer has to pay additionally for each hour worked)
Lucy worked 5 hours (5 x $3.12 per hour), so her employer will pay her an additional $15.60.
El importe total que Lucy ganó se calcula de esa manera:
$20.65 (her total wages for the day) + $15.60 (she got from her employer as the difference) = $36.25

Preguntas frecuentes sobre salarios con propina por estado
To learn more about this subject, let’s examine some of the frequently asked questions about tipped minimum wage by state.
Do waiters get paid less than the minimum wage?
The federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour, so paying employees less is illegal. However, if a waiter makes the minimum wage or more in tips, an employer can pay them at a lower rate.
Waiters earn the majority of their profits through tips. Their employer calculates their daily earnings based on state and federal laws by combining their tipped hourly rate and tips.
In certain states where tip credit is allowed, if a waiter earns more than $30 per month in tips, their employer can claim a tip credit and include tips in their wage calculation.
🎓 How to Calculate Work Hours: A Step-by-step Guide to Calculating Payroll and Hours Worked
¿Por qué los camareros ganan solo $2,13 por hora?
Servers only make $2.13 per hour in direct wages because the money they earn through tips usually exceeds the federal minimum wage.
In most cases, servers can earn far more than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. Sometimes, they can earn almost twice that amount (if a server earns less than the federal minimum, the employer must make up the difference).
This applies to states where the minimum cash wage is the same as that required under the federal FLSA ($2.13 per hour). However, in some states, employers are required to pay tipped employees a minimum cash wage above that amount.
🎓 Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Regulations
¿Cuál es el crédito de propina frente a un salario mínimo?
A tip credit against the minimum wage allows employers to include employees’ tips in calculating their wages, allowing them to pay a lower cash wage than the established minimum.
According to the Wage & Hour Division, the maximum tip credit an employer can claim is $5.12 per hour ($7.25 – $2.13 wage = $5.12). This is on the federal level, but tip credit varies by state.
Here’s an example of a tip credit calculation. Let’s say Mary is a waitress who works 30 hours a week. She earns $370 in tips, which her employer calculates by dividing the total tips by the hours worked. The employer does it like this:
$370 in tips / 30 hours she worked = $12.33 tips per hour
As $12.33 per hour exceeds the maximum tip credit of $5.12 per hour, the employer can claim the full tip credit of $5.12 per hour (the amount the employer doesn’t have to pay).
Si, por ejemplo, Mary cobró $100 en propinas, la situación sería diferente:
$100 in tips / 30 hours she worked = $3.33 tips per hour
As $3.33 per hour is less than the maximum tip credit of $5.12 per hour, Mary’s employer isn’t allowed to claim the full tip credit of $5.12 per hour, and they also have to make up the difference. So, let’s see how much her employer has to add to her regular wages:
$5.12 the maximum tip credit – $3.33 per hour = $1.79 per hour
$1.79 per hour x 30 hours she worked = $53.70 (the total the employer has to add as the difference)
¿Cuáles estados permiten el crédito de propina?

- In the US Virgin Islands, the Wage Board is authorized to increase the minimum wage for tipped tourist service and restaurant employees to a rate not greater than 45% of the minimum wage or less than the federal tipped minimum wage.
¿Qué es un fondo común de propinas?
Tip pooling is a form of tip distribution in which all of the tips are accumulated into one lump sum, which is then divided (mostly equally, but not always) among the tipped employees.
For example, tips can be split based on the hours worked or a point system where employees get a certain number of points, which determines the percentage of the tip pool they receive. These points are distributed to all workers who helped during that shift, such as:
- Asistentes de servicio,
- Bármanes,
- Servidores,
- Anfitrionas,
- Camareros, etc.
Sin embargo, la acumulación de propinas debe ser legal y estar de acuerdo con las regulaciones estatales y federales.
Para crear una política de fondo común de propina adecuada para tu negocio, debe cubrir los siguientes detalles:
- Si el fondo común de la propina es obligatorio o voluntario,
- Which employees must participate in tip pooling (if it is mandatory),
- ¿Cuánto debe contribuir cada empleado al ´fondo´?
- How you’ll divide the tips.
Once you have a tipping policy in place, communicate the rules clearly to your employees.
¿Es posible que un empleado te impone participar en un fondo común de propinas?
The short answer is — yes, they can.
La ley federal permite a los empleadores requerir a los empleados a participar en un fondo común y compartir propinas con otros empleados.
However, as the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) states, employers must notify their employees of any required tip pool contributions and can’t retain any tips for other purposes.
¿Cuánto dinero gana la mayoría de los camareros por un turno?
Based on the latest US Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers, the hourly wage for waiters and waitresses in 2023 was $15.36 per hour.
However, how much a server makes per shift depends on several factors, such as:
- The location and popularity of the server’s workplace — Restaurants in major US cities with a lot of visitors usually provide a better opportunity for tipped employees than restaurants in, for instance, a small town in Alabama.
- The type of shift they work — The amount of tips a server can make largely depends on the time of day because not every shift covers a lot of customers. For example, someone who works on a busy weekend night has more opportunities to get tips than someone who works during a slower shift, such as a lunch shift.
- The server’s skill level — A server with a higher skill level will more likely be awarded for their service than a server with a lower skill level.

¿Es obligatorio dar propinas en EE.UU.?
Although tipping isn’t mandatory in the US, employees expect and appreciate it. In most states, leaving a tip is customary even if the service wasn’t the best.
In cases of large parties, some restaurants will even add an automatic gratuity. Gratuity is usually a set percentage of the pre-tax total. If it’s included, you don’t have to tip.
¿Se debe pagar un impuesto para las propinas?
Tips are considered income, and like any other income, they are subject to federal income tax. Every employee is responsible for reporting their tips to their employer.
However, if your monthly tips are less than $20, you don’t need to report the tips for that month.
Como declara el IRS, como un empleado que recibe propinas debes hacer 3 cosas:
- Mantener un registro diario de propinas,
- Report tips to the employer (unless the total is less than $20 per month), and
- Presentar todas las propinas en una declaración de impuestos individuales.
According to the IRS, any tips the employee didn’t report to the employer must be reported separately on Form 4137 (Social Security and Medicare Tax on Unreported Tip Income) to include as additional wages with their tax return. The employer must also pay the employee’s share of Social Security and Medicare tax owed on those tips.
The amount the employer withholds from employees’ paychecks is based on their total wages plus tips, so employees must report all cash and non-cash tips received to the employer.
Aquí están las propinas que se deben presentar y para cuáles se debe pagar el impuesto:
- Las propinas en efectivo de los consumidores,
- Las propinas cargadas (como cargos de tarjeta de crédito y débito) que reciben los empleados de sus empleadores,
- Las propinas recibidas de otros empleados bajo un acuerdo de compartir propinas.
