This chapter considers the provisions of the Employment Rights Act 1996 for the protection of wages. First, it considers the definition of wages, and what are deductions. It then goes on to look at restrictions on unauthorised deductions from wages and payments (ERA, ss 13, 15); excepted deductions and excepted payments (ERA, ss 14, 16); deductions and payments in retail employment (ERA, ss 17–18); and complaints to an employment tribunal (ERA, s 23). The chapter also discusses the rules for national minimum wage and national living wage, covering who qualifies for them, the hourly rates and methods of enforcement. |
