Proper Deductions from Wages

Deductions will be withheld from wages when one of the following conditions is met.

1.The college is required to do so by law. Examples: Federal and state taxes, social security, or a garnishment order.

2. The employee has voluntarily signed an authorization for the deduction. Examples: group health insurance premiums, contributions to charitable organizations, credit union loan payments, tax deferred annuities.

3. The deduction is made in accordance with a collective bargaining agreement to which the college and employee are parties.  Examples: union dues.

Upon termination of employment, a deduction can be taken from the employee's final paycheck for the repayment of money loaned to the employee provided all the conditions outlined in ORS 652.610 and ORS 23.185(1) (a) or (d) are met.
