Employer taking money without consent

[olehellhound]

I work for a medium sized company in Tennessee, and recently one of the old managers stole some product from a locked case that the regular employees do not have the keys to gain entry to.

We earn minimum wage plus commission. The management decided that because of the missing product, they were going to deduct money from all the employees checks with or without our consent. They faxed a form for each employee to sign to our store form the management office, getting consent to deduct x amount from our paychecks for two pay periods. Nobody signed the forms, but they still deducted, or stole, the money from our paychecks.

What should I, as well as the other employees of our store, do?

Thanks!

You can file a complaint with your state's wage & labor department.

Your employer has engaged in improper (perhaps, even illegal) behavior.

After you file your complaint, say nothing. It is best if your crooked employer is caught off guard.
