It is the right of an employee to receive salary in consideration of the work done, this right cannot be infringed by the Employer in any way without Employeeโs consent (๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ยฐ ๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐/๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐๐ง๐๐). The employer can not in any way undertake salary deductions from an employee without his or her consent. This implies that an employee is supposed to be paid his or her whole salary as stipulated or reflected in his or her employment contract except for deductions mandated for by the laws, consent of the employee or competent authority (๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ยฐ ๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐/๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐๐ง๐๐).
It is of insight to note that for any punishment to be subjected to the employee, salary deduction is not a better move or option for the employers. Take for instance, if an employee who works in a hotel breaks hotel glasses during his or her day to day work, salary deduction on such employeeโs salary is not a better solution except under circumstances where there is mutual agreement between the employee and employer and any deduction made cannot go beyond half of the employeeโs salary (๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ยฐ ๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐/๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐๐ง๐๐).
Under circumstance where the employer illegally deducts the Employeeโs salary, the employee is entitled to interests on his or her deducted salary (๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ยฐ ๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐/๐๐/๐๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฐ๐๐ง๐๐). In an advisory note, it is advised that, employers need not to adopt salary deduction as a disciplinary method of punishing the employee for any mistake done at work.
