  • Judiciary; Ways and Means
    February 25 2019 Submitted by Electronic Mail Senate Committees: Labor, Culture and Arts; Judiciary; Ways and Means Re: Opposition to SB 243 – Relating to Payments of Child and Spousal Support - Tips Dear Senators: The American Payroll Association (APA) opposes SB 243, as written. Including tips above the tip credit reported to the employer when calculating the amount to withhold for a child support order or other garnishment is in conflict with federal law. These provisions are covered in the federal Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA) and interpretation of the CCPA by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) in Fact Sheet #30: The Federal Wage Garnishment Law, Consumer Credit Protection Act's Title III (CCPA). SB 243, as proposed, would amend Hawaii Revised Statutes §§ 571-52, 571-52.2, and 576-16E to read, “Income includes salaries, wages, including tips or gratuities paid directly to an individual by a customer of the employer and reported or declared to the employer.…” It is appropriate for the state to include tips in the definition of income when determining the amount of child support an individual is able to pay. However, it is not appropriate for the employer garnishee to include tips in the calculation of the amount to be withheld from the employee’s paycheck. According to the DOL, tips given directly to employees by customers whether in cash or on a credit or debit card are not considered earnings for the purpose of determining disposable earnings for garnishments (W-H Op. Ltr., WH-95, 12-15-70; DOL Fact Sheet #30).
