In most cases, the answer is yes. Standard business practice for a company that makes loans to employees is to have the employee sign a pay-back agreement. In the agreement, there usually is a section that specifies what happens when the employee leaves the company before the loan is paid. In most cases, the agreement stipulates that the employer can deduct the balance of the loan from the employee's final paycheck.
It depends on the laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. In some cases, employers may legally withhold a final paycheck to recover outstanding debts owed to the company. However, in most jurisdictions, employers are required to pay the final paycheck in a timely manner regardless of any outstanding debts. It is best to consult with a local labor or employment lawyer to understand the specific laws in your area.
If they can show that a loan was made, they are entitled to get the money back. No agreement to pay it back needs to be shown.

in missouri can my employer hold my paycheck after the 15th they always say we have to wait to cash till the following mon after the 15th. is this a law?
Probably the employer can reimburse itself for any losses it incurred because of your error out of your paycheck. However, the employer probably can't reimburse itself for any loss it incurred beyond that (i.e. a penalty). Talk with your employer and get a detailed statement of the amounts withheld and why (request documentation of the employer's losses as well). Talk to a lawyer if the employer refuses.
if it is part of your contract or conditions of employment.
yes they can....
There are situations where a California employer can hold an employee's wages. If the employee's wages are being garnished the employer can hold them.

Yes. When monies are deducted from your paycheck they are supposed to be sent to a trust company to protect them. The reason for the trust company to hold them is so no one has access to your funds, but you. You will definitely want to submit your paystubs to your plan administrator to determine the discrepancy.
