For example, where the applicable minimum wage is $7.25 and the employer is paying a direct cash wage of $2.13:
;$7.25 x 1.5 = $10.88 (time and a half);
;$7.25 – $2.13 = $5.12 (this is the tip credit);
;$10.88 – $5.12 = $5.76 (this is the overtime rate for this tipped employee);
;All hours worked must be paid at $7.25 per hour + any overtime hours paid at an additional $5.76 per hour.;
This assumes the employee earned enough tips to equal at least $5.12 per hour.

;How to Contend with a Job-Hopping Workforce;
When comparing positions held by workers after the age of 21 (excluding part-time and short-term work during high school or college), the research revealed the following longevity averages:
;Baby Boomers: 3.6 employers in 27.1 years (7.5 years per job);
;Generation X: 4.2 employers in 19.4 years (4.6 years per job);
;Millennials: 3.9 employers in 9.2 years (2.4 years per job);
;Generation Z: 2.7 employers in 2.8 years (1 year per job);
Although the data may exclude some shorter-term, early career jobs not listed by older workers, the gap is more than significant enough to account for those omissions, and it still paints a picture of dramatically increased job-hopping by the workforce’s newest entrants, said Jesse Wheeler, a senior macroeconomic analyst at Revelio Labs.
