Maternity Leave

[SPSmith]

Hi Hannes

Thanks for your feedback but I don't agree with you.

BCEA states that money can only be deducted for:
4.6.1
a) debt (e.g. company loan)
b) collective agreement (we're not part of any collective agreements), law (e.g. UIF), court order (don't have that)
4.6.2
Damage or loss (maternity leave payment isn't either)
4.6.3
Payments to benefit funds (nope)

Making deductions from wages already paid in good faith isn't covered by any of the above permissions according to BCEA, in my understanding of the Act
