Well, I go back to the primary premise, being that the law prohibits deductions, that are not required by law, from being deducted AT ALL without the employee's express written authorization. And not just, "I agree to pay for health insurance", but "I agree to pay XX per paycheck (or XX per...

Here is the law in PA regarding deductions from pay: http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt?open=514&objID=563209&mode=2#12 So, by making the deductions AT ALL without your written authorization, the employer is in violation of the PA Wage Payment and Collection Law. Having...

You signed an authorization for the benefit deductions, correct? And that authorization included how much the deduction was supposed to be?

Yes. Lesson learned. If it sounds to good to be true, it may well be.

I think you should have known better. If you are asking whether this was a wrongful termination, it was not.

I just asked you some follow-up questions on the other board on which you posted.

I answer the questions that are asked, based on my over 30 years of experience.

Which is perfectly legal.

That's all fine and good and you have the right to feel however you want to feel. However, this is a legal site for general legal information, and NOTHING you have posted indicates that any illegal discrimination is occuring.

In answer to the last question, no, not really. He's going to do what he's going to do. However, if he is stalking you and you are afraid of physical harm, contact the police.

He can show favoritism towards her because she is a Wildcats fan.

Don't assume this son wasn't able to deal with the situation. "Support" is fine. "Advice" is fine. Honestly, if they're old enough and mature to have a job, they're old enough talk to their employer about their paycheck and they're old enough to file a wage claim. I have worked for...

The OP needs her own attorney. There is NO indication in the OP's post that there is any doubt that she owes the money.

The employer had no legal obligation to talk to mom. Mom would have done much better to advise her child how to handle the situation and let him handle it. Teach a man to fish............................

Sure didn't sound to me like the OP was questioning that she owes the money.

My resource shows only that pay is due in WA no more than 7 days after the end of the pay period. There is no mention of the law requiring that payment be accelerated when the scheduled pay day falls on a nonbanking day or company holiday.

If I were running this paymenty operation (and I have paid pensioners in the past), I would have just started withholding going forward. However, there is no law I know of that would prevent the payer from taking the whole net from the next two payments for the back taxes. Someone else might.

Then the regulation in post #8 would apply. Also, the first sentence here, although the previous regulation is actually more applicable: https://www.dol.gov/dol/allcfr/ESA/Title_29/Part_785/29CFR785.13.htm Here is the information regarding filing a wage claim, even if NOT terminated, for...
