I want to know if the government has urged all employers not to cut or reduce the salary or wages during the lockdown period. However, some employers want to deduct the salary or not pay during this period. I want to know if this is an offense. If it is an offense, what is the punishment? Please specify it.

Hi,
We need to understand the situation now; the whole world is suffering from COVID-19. All industries are facing the same issues. Let's understand that when the world is suffering, it will impact revenue. It's the right time to support all sectors. Today, they may deduct; as HR professionals, we need to plan to return those deductions in some other way after the lockdown.
Thank you.
