The enactment of a new tipping law has been pushed back to October 2024 to give businesses more time to introduce any changes required. The Employment Act 2023 has been designed to ensure hospitality staff receive all money left to them in tips by customers, which is of course exactly what incredible hospitality staff deserve. Receiving Royal Assent back in May last year, it was expected to come into action on 1st July, however recent government announcement speaks of the 3-month delay. Smyth & Co’s Founder, Craig Allen says “the new tipping law should help the UK provide better service standards within the industry. Theoretically, overall take-home pay will increase, attracting more people into the sector—a much-needed change since Brexit and Covid depleted labour levels. For once a job in hospitality may be considered as they are in the US and other countries, where tips significantly incentivise individuals to stay in the industry long-term".

A day in the life of an Executive Chef! In the very early hours, the Executive Chef arrives at the kitchen, setting the stage for the day ahead. With menu planning and inventory checks, and tasks delegated, prep work begins. Culminating in a seamless lunch service perfectly planned by the chef's leadership. Afternoon sees a brief break from the kitchen for administrative tasks before dinner prep begins. As evening service approaches, the kitchen buzzes with energy, delivering perfection with every plate under the Executive Chef's watchful eye. Throughout the evening, they continue to ensure quality and connections with diners. As service winds down, they conduct final checks and help to clean and close the kitchen ready for the following morning. After reviewing performance and planning for the next day, they are able to head home - ready to do it all again.
