ABOUT THE EVENT

This webinar provides a practical overview of what employers can and cannot deduct from an employee’s regular or final paycheck. Wage deduction errors can lead to IRS penalties, DOL audits, and state enforcement - making it essential for payroll professionals to get it right every time.

We’ll simplify the complex rules that determine which deductions are mandatory, optional, prohibited, or require employee consent, and how these rules can differ under federal vs. state laws. Attendees will learn how to handle required tax withholdings, employee-controlled deductions, back-tax collection orders, garnishments, payday loan requests, and voluntary and involuntary fringe benefit deductions.

The session also covers real-world payroll challenges, including uniforms, tools, shortages, breakage, meals and lodging, overpayments, advanced vacation, employee loans, wage advances, and employee purchases - plus special considerations for final paychecks.
