can a company garnish wages if a mistake is made on the job?

Question

can a company garnish wages if a mistake is made on the job?



Answer

Generally, an employer cannot make additional reductions from earned pay without permission or a Court Order. That doesn't mean that some do anyway. The employer will not get a Court Order to withhold, unless a case was filed and it went to judgment. If an employer wrongfully with olds pay, they can be liable to the employee for much more than they withheld.

Good luck
