Common questions
- What is the minimum cash wage for tipped employees in Utah?
- The federal minimum cash wage for tipped employees in Utah is $2.13 per hour for 2025. Employers must ensure that tips combined with this cash wage equal at least the full minimum wage; otherwise, the employer must make up the difference.
Every amount on this page is a published figure rather than yours. The Tips needed per hour takes the number you enter and works it out against them, showing which published figure it used.
Who counts as a tipped employee
In Utah, you count as a tipped employee if you regularly receive at least $30.00 per month in tips. This threshold applies to both adult workers and minors. If you meet this definition, your employer may pay you a cash wage of $2.13 per hour instead of the full minimum wage, but only if your tips combined with that cash wage bring your total hourly earnings to at least $7.25. If you do not regularly earn $30.00 or more per month in tips, you are not considered a tipped employee and your employer must pay you the full minimum wage for all hours worked.
Employees receiving tips of at least $30.00 per month may be paid a cash wage of $2.13 per hour, if the total of the cash wage and the tips total at least $7.25 per hour.
