| | | Payroll error- cut a check or add to next check?
What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I have had several incorrect checks because I did not clock in or out properly. The payroll manager now states that he is sick of fixing my errors and cutting me a separate check. He said that from now on if there are payroll errors, they will be added to my next check. Is this legal? |

Why has he spent over $1.35M in legal fees to block disclosure... rather than spend $12 for a VALID birth cert to settle the matter? The 'certificate' he has presented doesn't qualify to get a drivers license, wouldn't allow a child to qualify for Little League, or for a real citizen to get a US passport!

| | | Actually, no this is not legal. A timekeeping error will not circumvent an employer's obligation to pay you in accordance with the law. If a timekeeping error is made, the employer should make an effort to correct the mistake as expeditiously as possible. This is not very well enforced in California, and many employers, chose not to pay employees in accordance with law.

Employer's responsibility to pay for work performed.. Employee's responsibility to follow employer's rules for clocking in and out. Employer should warn and then terminate. |

| | | It's also an error on the part of whoever is supposed to be approving the time. No, the law does not provide an exception to allow "puttin it on next check". But realistically, filing a claim with the DLSE could take MONTHS to resolve. OP, clock in and out properly and this is no longer an issue.
