  Hotel bosses took staff 'tips'  
   

Banqueting managers at The Dorchester, one of the country's most prestigious hotels, have been deducting money from their staff's service charges and adding it to their own, a BBC London investigation has discovered.

A former employee says the deductions were supposedly for "poor performance" and were made without the knowledge of the workers concerned.

But a spokesman from The Dorchester, based in Park Lane, central London, said "all employees are made fully aware" of the service charge scheme rules, which comply with employment laws.

According to documents, seen by BBC London, thousands of pounds were docked from staff service charges using a "penalty points scheme" over a five-month period.
