Employers are generally not responsible for paying payroll taxes on tips that employees receive from customers. However, there are some exceptions and rules that employers must follow when it comes to tips and payroll taxes. 

• Employers are responsible for withholding income taxes on tips, just like they do for regular wages. 

• Employers must report all tips received by their employees to the IRS, either through Form 8027opens in a new tab (Employer's Annual Information Return of Tip Income and Allocated Tips) or by including them in the employee's W-2 form. 

• Employers may be required to pay FICA taxes (Social Security and Medicare taxesopens in a new tab) on tips if the employee's total wages (including tips) are less than the minimum wage and the employer makes up the difference. 
• Employers should be aware of state-specific laws regarding the reporting and payment of payroll taxes on tips. 

It's important for employers to be aware of the rules and regulations regarding tips and payroll taxes and to comply with them to avoid penalties and fines.
