What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana
I was laid off December 19th, (I was told three weeks, possibly more). There was a note on our time clock stating that if you wanted to keep your insurance, payments were to be made to the HR dept. Knowing I could not afford to do this ($157.47) per week, I did not pay anything figuring my insurance would be terminated for non-payment. I was called back to work temporarily from March 10th through March 20th. On March 19th, my supervisor came into my office with a piece of paper saying that the company had paid for my insurance for the whole month of January and that I owed the company around $754 and that the company would take the full amount out of the two weeks they brought me back to work. I find this so immoral and wrong to do this when I have been a major part of the company for the last two years. Can they do this to me?
