Lately we have been having a ton of company misuse of our "accounts".
Many of our employees have gas cards and access to open accounts in which employees are allowed to order parts and supplies.

Employees have refused to turn in expense reports with reciepts as required by our policy and have been warned on numerous occasions.

My questions are as follows;

Are we allowed to deduct the unauthorized charges (ie: getting gas on a saturday night - not during work hours), from their paychecks.

Can we deduct the charges reported on an expense report if a reciept does not accompany the report as requeired.


Are we allowed to limit the amount of time an employee has to "turn in" expense reports for reimbursement and subsequently refuse to pay reimbursements becasue said reports were not turned in within the defined time period.

Thanks for your help!

Duplicate post.

CA laws are very different from the laws of most states and sometimes it takes longer than half an hour before someone with the knowledge you need logs on. This is a volunteer site and we all do this on our own time.

Please be patient. :)

It's not a patience issue...Just didnt know which area to post... :)

Thanks!

We're not too fussy about getting into exactly the right forum here. As long as it's at least vaguely related to the topic forum, you're okay. :)
