Our HR Lady Deducting Late Comings With Overtime Payments

There are no laws allowing \"late arrival\" to be deducted from Overtime.

Hi
For these kind of deductions to be informed by the employer at the time of joining or to be mentioned in the handbook, or if there is any policy invented in between, the same to be circulated among all the employees before making any deductions.
Every company has its own policies. Suppose three lates in one month will be considered as half day leave in one organisation. the same will be considered as LOP in another organisation.

Dear FRIEND,
I do not about law , but I Think she is doing right , because if she mentioned half day for your late coming , then this amount is too much more then as compare to you overtime amount .
eg: if you have 20 minute late and this will happen in 6 times in a months ,it means your total half day is 6 in a month or 3 leaves in a month or 240 hours . and according to your words she will deduct only 120 hours . and dear sorry i m also not aware from law , but after your discussion i am also study on this topic .

Hi,
Anju
Fine should not be collected from overtime, if she want to punish them then she can issue memo otherwise show cause, after 3 memo she can take decision legally, company should be legally strong.
Deducting money for late mark that is not good......if he is repeating she can warn after that she can take decision to terminate.
for example if one employee will come late and he knows for late i will be fine that will not effect and other employees also will think the same, so better take action immediately ( like...Termination , Suspend) then others will be follow your company policies......

Your HR is correct.
When you are working extra, they will be paying OT.
Likewise, when you are coming late, the amount can be deducted as per the company policy. One should be punctual to duty. You are deviating the rules.

Dear All
if someone is late by 20 minutes or 2hours at 6 occasions or number of occasions than as per the payment of wages act 1936 ,section 8b ,it is absent from duty and accordingly this absence can be deducted from wages.
However it can not be deducted from overtime or it can not be adjusted from overtime

Dear sir,
I would like to inform you that, why not employees are not follow company rules & why coming late as regular practice?
Thanks & Regards

Dear all
Please do not mention Lady Hr , it indicate the What is going on the their , As per what they agreed in Standing order then Can Deduct the salary , In my Point of View , IF x Person daily Late means it is Notable one ," we are they HR we Know the Importance Production and More Over Manpower .
What Ever May be We should Follow the Rules ..

I think that if he is not a regular latecomer Hr can adjust it. In our organization if you have 3 late marks(more than 1 hour and without notice) we deduct a maximum half day salary but after doing a personal meeting with him/her. But whether if it's target oriented job section we don't deduct it if he/she achieves atleast his/her salary.

The management reserves the right to treat the employee as absent with consequent deductions of salary as per the provisions of the payment of wages Act 1936 under section 9. It can be suggested to change the present Attendance policy. A grace period of 15 minutes is usually acceptable (This cannot be presumed as a matter of right). After that for every three late marking, a half day may be deducted. For further reference, refer section 9 of Wages Act 1936.
