What deductions is my employer allowed to take from my wages?

The only deductions your employer can make are:

  • deductions that you have authorized in writing (for example, union dues);
  • deductions authorized by a binding collective agreement;
  • deductions required by law (for example, taxes, pension) or by court order (for example, maintenance payments).
