What is the name of your state? CA

Can an employer rufuse to pay an individual that is on a salary just because he forgets to fill out a time sheet?

There was never a written policy in regards to this situation.

Thanks for the help.

If the employer knew or should have known you worked, you must be paid. I'm assuming by "salary" you mean "exempt"? Because salary is just a pay method. They can discipline you for not following company procedures but they cannot withhold your pay because of it. By how many days past the regularly scheduled pay day is your check late?

It isn't late. We are just being threatened not to get paid if we forget to fill out our time card.

THREATENING not to pay you is legal. It would only be illegal if they actually withhold it.

Of course, there's an easy way to solve this; don't forget to fill out your time card.
