MI HB4230

Amends Michigan's wage deduction law to clarify restrictions on employer deductions from employee wages, effective February 13, 2024

Requires written consent from employees for most wage deductions benefiting the employer, except as specified in the law

Permits employers to deduct wage overpayments without written consent if: the overpayment resulted from mathematical or clerical error, written notice is provided at least one pay period in advance, the deduction does not exceed 15% of gross wages in that pay period, and wages do not fall below minimum wage

Permits employers to deduct amounts paid on employee debts under default judgments without written consent under the same conditions as overpayment deductions (15% limit, advance written notice, minimum wage protection)

Allows nonprofit organizations to obtain a single written consent for charitable contribution deductions from paychecks rather than requiring consent for each paycheck, and permits employees to rescind authorization in writing at any time
