Non-Deduction from Wages Clause Samples
The Non-Deduction from Wages clause prohibits employers from making unauthorized or improper deductions from an employee’s pay. In practice, this means that only deductions required by law (such as taxes) or those expressly agreed to in writing by the employee are permitted, and any other deductions—such as for damaged equipment or cash shortages—are not allowed unless specifically authorized. This clause serves to protect employees’ earnings, ensuring they receive their full, agreed-upon wages and preventing employers from unilaterally reducing pay to cover business losses or penalties.
Non-Deduction from Wages a. Contributions provided under Sections 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 shall not be deducted from the wages of the employees.
b. Effective as of the dates set forth in Appendix C of this Agreement, each Employer will contribute the sums per hour set forth or to be determined in the manner set forth in Appendix C for each hour worked excluding time spent in training or education required by the Employer with prior approval of the Joint Arbitration Board by and on behalf of each employee covered by this Agreement.
