Absent an employment contract or union agreement covering deductions, Fl does not have any laws regarding what deductions may or may not be taken from an employee's paycheck; nor does it have any laws whether or not an employee must provide written consent prior to any deduction being made. That having been said, under federal law, an employer may not make deduction if it would cause the employee to earn less than federal minimum wage for the period in which the deduction was made.
