Report Link Nevada Supreme Court Dismisses Casino Workers' Tip Pooling Claims; Affirms Employer Discretion.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 25, 2008 In an important case that reaffirms an employer’s right to make unilateral changes to the terms and conditions of employment for at-will employees, the Nevada Supreme Court has reaffirmed judgment in favor of a Las Vegas casino on its workers’ tip pooling claims. The Court held that employees could not pursue a private lawsuit to enforce Nevada’s labor laws. The Court also rejected the plaintiffs’ breach of contract claims relating to their employer’s changes to its tip-pooling policy. It found that the plaintiffs, as at-will employees, had no enforceable contract rights in future distributions of their tips. Report Link Union-Supported Petition Initiative in Nevada Would Prohibit Employer Required Tip Sharing.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - February 08, 2008 On January 16, 2008, a Las Vegas-based union campaigning to organize dealers in Nevada filed an initiative petition with the Nevada Secretary of State seeking to reverse a decade-old state law permitting employers to institute tip-pooling arrangements among all employees involved in the provision of service to customers. The petition filed by the International Union of Gaming Employees (IUGE) needs at least 58,628 signatures by November 11, 2008, in order to go to the 2009 legislature. If the petition has the necessary signatures by November 11th but does not pass in the legislature in 2009, it will then be placed on the 2010 ballot for voters to decide.
