Recently some fancy restaurants in NZ have started asking if I want to tip (tipping has never been common practice in NZ). I always refuse and state this exact reason. As soon as customers are expected to tip, workers get exploited.

I'm not tipping you for your own (long-term) good.

NZ has a similar minimum wage to Australia, right?

I think some of it is (stupidly) driven by new credit card / eftpos machines that have the tipping option built in.
