Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Federal regulations restrict the types of deductions that can be made from an employee’s wages or salary. Deductions can be made in certain cases, but the legality often depends on the nature and purpose of the deductions, as well as the status of the employee as exempt or non-exempt.
Georgia does not address wage deduction issues beyond the federal law.
