Yes, a Pennsylvania employer can take money out of your paycheck, but there are specific regulations governing this practice. Deductions are generally allowed for taxes, Social Security, benefits, and other legally mandated amounts. However, any deductions for things like uniforms or tools typically require the employee's consent. Employers must also provide clear information about any deductions being made.
