The 45B FICA Tax Tip Credit is a tax incentive that will have significant benefits for both employees and salon owners within the beauty industry. Access to this credit would allow beauty establishment employers to claim a tax credit on their share of FICA taxes on tips received by their employees. By doing so, salon owners can reduce their tax liability and provide a flourishing workplace environment for their employees.
This credit exists in the tax code and has been available to restaurant owners for three decades. Extending the credit to the beauty industry will allow salons and spas to reduce their tax burden, making it more cost-effective to maintain a strong team and reward their staff for exceptional service. Most importantly, it will create a fair application of the tax code and remove the financial roadblock owners face when taking on the responsibility of making sure their employees are compliant in reporting tip income.
