Payment for work performed

The FW Act deals with the frequency and methods of payment for the performance of work and allowable deductions from those payments. The object of these provisions is to prevent employers from engaging in modern forms of “truck” practices, such as making deductions from employees' wages where service station or restaurant customers leave without paying their bills.
