What Employers Can Legally Deduct From Payroll Checks

This webinar educates and updates payroll professionals on the types of deductions that employers take from an employee’s paychecks.

We will review the laws that surround all types of deductions an employer can take with or without employee consent. For instance, did you know that employers in some states are not allowed to take deductions from employees that are not authorized in writing by the employee? Or that some states allow you to take deductions for payroll overpayments - but for only a specific period of time from the time of the overpayment.

This training session also covers how to handle employer loans and advances, as well as IRS taxation issues that occur with payroll overpayments.
