In order to pay their supervisors and pit bosses more, the Wynn (and its sister property the Encore) gave supervisors and pit bosses a $5,000 annual raise and a share of the dealers’ tips (commonly called tokes). The policy has been challenged for several years by a group of the Wynn’s dealers. But Wynn was just getting started in Macau (Wynn Macau opened in 2006; the Wynn in Cotai 7 years later), and these developments cost billions of dollars. Not only did the company need these monies, but once you increase the compensation of the floor to match the dealers, it is difficult to pull back should the dealers' tokes regress to the mean. However, Wynn is cutting the dealers’ recent $2 pay raise by $1 to $8.25, a move that will trim their annual fixed pay by $2,000. Dealers were enthusiastic with the late night news, but said.

District Court Decision Finding the Wynn Tip Pool Unlawful

ANALYSIS
As this blog reported in December, a Clark County District Court Judge found the Wynn Las Vegas’ Tip-pooling Policy, which shared dealers’ tips with pit bosses and other supervisory personnel, in violation of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The District Court recently signed off on its written decision, which remanded the case to the Nevada Labor Commissioner for further proceedings. The case will either return to the Labor Commissioner or the Wynn may choose to appeal the Judge’s decision to the Nevada Supreme Court.
As we mentioned when the decision was first announced, this case may have important ramifications for tip-pooling policies throughout the Las Vegas valley and the State of Nevada. However, Nevada District Courts do not publish decisions, so this decision has no precedential effect. The Nevada Supreme Court would have to affirm the District Court, in a written opinion, for this decision to having binding authority in the state.

The writers of this blog applaud the Court’s decision and hope that this case ultimately ends in a similar decision from the Nevada Supreme Court. This decision is important to the large number of workers in the hospitality industry in the State of Nevada.
Starting September 1st, dealers at Wynn Las Vegas will be sharing their tips with pit bosses. This is a dramatic shift for a Strip resort to make - typically pit bosses are salaried and make far less than dealers, a bit of an oddity in the business world where supervisors usually make more than subordinates.
Apparently the dealers are less than pleased and I'm not surprised. Still, I think that this has a good shot at become the new Strip standard. The disparity was growing and a lot of dealers turned down promotions for this reason. This evens it out a bit. I'm sure they'll lose some dealers over this but I doubt any customers will notice.
