Authorized Deductions Lare Coming Factory Act

Dear seniors,
can employer deuct wages for late coming for an employee who comes late in a month say 5 times in a month for 3-4 t minutes?

Prashant: If your HR policy manual covers that, then technically yes.

Dear talentsorcerer,
if policy is silent on this then is it written in any Act?

dear sir,
it depends on factory management decision.
to lear a lesson to late commer,it is better to 1/2 day for 4 hrs and exceeding
4 hrs. full day be marked as earned leave.

Dear talentsorcerer,
If my HR policy manual says that the deduction towards late coming of one hour will be one day. This case, can I deduct one day for one hour late?

Dear Keshav,
I am no HR person. Let me ask you a question. Do you think that the company policy is reasonable?

Dear Sir,
if it will be written on HR policy, then one hr. late commer will not come on duty,remain absent and next day he will apply for Leave.
ours is a policy if any worker or staff member comes late 4 times late,ie.10 minutes to 1 hr. is marked Earned Leave.(we have allowed 10 minutes as grace to join his duty) after ten minutes every minute is recorded.

Dear All
Pl don't allow any grace time to anybody - because all are paid for 8 (eight) hours of work. The Management should clearly and categorically inform that late coming - which is indiscipline cannot be tolerated under any circumstances and if anybody reports for work beyond the shift commencement time, he will not be permitted for work. There should not be any deviation in the system and it may cause some sort of problems @ the initial stages and after sometime it will become a healthy practice in the establishment.
