Michigan HB4293 revises wage deduction rules, requiring written consent for most deductions and allowing certain deductions without consent.

Michigan HB4293 amends the Michigan Labor Act to revise rules on wage deductions. It prohibits employers from deducting wages without written consent, except for those required or permitted by law or collective bargaining agreements. It allows deductions for overpayments due to errors or miscalculations, provided the employer gives a written explanation and the deduction does not reduce wages below the minimum rate. It also allows deductions for default judgments without consent if certain conditions are met.
