docking pay

Generally, an employer is not permitted to dock your pay to repay a debt owed to the employer, except for an advance on wages. You can contact the Massachusetts attorney general's office to file a complaint against the employer. You should know that it is also illegal for the employer to take action against you for exercising your right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office.
