NMWM11065 - Deductions and payments from workers: contractual deductions or payments: for conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™

Relevant legislation

The legislation that applies to this page is as follows:

  • National Minimum Wage Regulations 2015, regulations 12(2)(a)

When considering contractual deductions and payments from workers it is necessary to consider both:

  • conduct and discipline (NMWM11060), and
  • conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™.

Conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™

A deduction made from a worker바카라 사이트™s pay or a payment made by the worker to his employer which is both:

  • a specified contractual liability of the worker ANDÌý
  • in respect of the worker바카라 사이트™s conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™

will not reduce National Minimum Wage pay.

The circumstances relating to the deduction or payment must be specified in the worker바카라 사이트™s contract (i.e. the worker must be contractually liable) and the clause must be in respect of a voluntary deduction or payment (for example, something not in connection with the employment NMWM11100) which is triggered by 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™ which has some relationship to the voluntary conduct of the worker, such as a choosing to resign. Examples of conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™ are described in NMWM11066.

Where deductions are being made from workers it is reasonable to expect the employer to provide evidence to a NMW Compliance Officer regarding the exact circumstances of such deductions. If an employer suggests that a deduction is stipulated as conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™ in a worker바카라 사이트™s contract (written or otherwise) and the clause makes the worker contractually liable for a deduction, then it is reasonable to see some evidence to expressly support this.

See NMWM11070 if an employer makes deductions or payments as specified in a worker바카라 사이트™s contract which are not related to conduct and discipline or conduct relating to 바카라 사이트˜any other event바카라 사이트™.
