Mayfair casino facing legal action after former waiter says he did not get fair share of tips

Former worker at Metropolitan on Park Lane in London says he had to share tips with managers and other staff

A Mayfair casino is facing legal action from a former waiter who says he was not given a fair share of tips.

The former worker at the Metropolitan Mayfair - part of the Metropolitan Casinos group owned by the US investment firm Silver Point Capital, which operates seven casinos in the UK and four in Egypt - has filed a complaint with the employment tribunal in London over his share of cash tips given directly to him, which he says he was forced to share with managers and other staff.
