Can we deduct pay if workers go beyond their PTO allotment?

12/30/2013

Q: We have an exempt employee who is out of PTO for 2013. I was led to believe we can deduct (from their pay) any hours the employee takes off for personal time if they are out of PTO. (We have a PTO policy in place stating employees who are out of PTO may be granted personal time off without pay.) Are we handling this correctly? If we are not able to deduct hours, what is the recommended way to handle these situations? – Anonymous, Wisconsin
