Check with a lawyer for Colorado-specific laws, but no, it should not be legal. Your paycheck is money you earned for things you ALREADY did, since it's issued after every two weeks (or however long, point being, its after the hours you worked). Therefore, they have no right to not pay you for what you already did.

As long as you pay the company $50 before the due date for that billing period, you've made the payment.  If it's due Nov 30 and you give them $25 from your paycheck Nov 9 and $25 more on the 15th, you've made the payment.

Make a case by showing your boss exactly what your expenses are and what that amounts to in an hourly wage.  That shows that you aren't just asking for the sake of asking.

My cousin told them he was quitting (2 weeks notice) and they let him go that second, they did however pay him for the next two weeks! They were so afraid he would sabotage the business those last two weeks they figured it was better to just pay up and cut their losses!!!\nHowever it doesnt always end well. You have the right to your last two weeks of pay and as far as a reference goes they can NOT say anything horrible about you (unless its true!!) because you can SUE them! All they can tell a potential employer is dates of employment, title, pay, and responsibilities.

It really depends on your company's policy.  I asked a similar question to HR after my company was taken over.  She said the old company wouldn't do anything, but the new one might pursue.  The company might take your last paycheck to offset the dollar amount they have "lost."

You have to wait until the company cuts checks (or whenever your pay period ends) and then the company will usually mail it.  It's pretty standard.  Most managers won't just cut you a check when you give your notice or on your last day.

It depends on the state and the union contract. The answer is most likely yes because he did not sign anything new saying that he was entitled to the extra money. Sometimes the company values the employee, so they will let you keep the extra money, but I do not believe they have any obligation to let you keep that extra money. \n\nThe flip side is if they have been paying him weekly for five weeks and just figured it out, you can argue that you had a reliance on the new paycheck. Once you is a mistake twice maybe, but five weeks is different. Depends all on how often you get a paycheck too.

yes... without a just cause. If you quit and don't return something, they can keep your paycheck until you bring it back.

Yes they can.  They check to make sure that you're not overdrawn and owe them more money.

Even if you quit without giving notice, your employer does not have the right to withold your last paycheck. Legally, they have to pay you for the hours you worked. The check would be paid out by the next pay period. If you did not get paid, get in touch with your Labour board.

If you can find a better job fast, don't hesitate to change immediately.\n\nIf not, better play safe and work and wait until the end of the year to receive the severence pay.
