Automatic Deductions from Time Worked

Automatic Deductions from Time Worked

Employers frequently make automatic deductions from the time they credit their employees with working each day or shift. These automatic deductions are often made for meal and other rest breaks that employees are unable to take due to the hectic nature of their jobs. Sometimes employers program their timekeeping system to make these automatic deductions, while other times they simply schedule employees for 8.5 hour shifts but only pay them for 8 hours worked. Either way, these practices may results in employees working off-the-clock.

If your employer has made automatic deductions from your time worked, you may be eligible to make a claim for unpaid wages. If you have any questions about this investigation or would like to discuss a potential claim, please contact us to speak with an attorney for a free and confidential consultation.
