While Peru has a series of needs linked to citizen insecurity, poverty reduction, economic growth, in the Congress They continue with proposals to increase regulation.
This time, the group Together for Peru – Voices of the People – Teaching Block, presented a project that allegedly reinforces the consumer’s rights to be duly informed about the collection of the consumption surcharge, equivalent to the tip.
In that sense, the proposal states that establishments must now record in a visible place not only the price list but also how this extra payment will be distributed for a worker.
“This establishment has signed an agreement so that the collection of the consumption surcharge or tip is distributed in full and exclusively among all its workers. This agreement is available to the public and its workers.” This is the text that establishments where food and drinks are sold should display.
With ignorance of the norm, the explanatory statement states that tipping in Peru “is not a voluntary act of gratitude, but rather an institutionalized and mandatory charge, which completely changes its legal analysis.”
Something that has not been taken into account is that the Business Ready (B-READY) report, which evaluates the global business climate, reveals that the results from Peru show that overregulation and inefficiency in public services are significant obstacles to doing business.
