As the title says, Medium size beverage company, outside salesman, have a cdl and drive a “short haul 53 foot semi truck” every day. Classified under FLSA as “exempt” The company is deducting pay from employees for “missing/damaged goods” from the trailers that they either just didn’t send or was picked up from a store and returned and they didn’t check in. I was under the impression that exempt employees could not be deducted for that because it’s about quality/quantity of work. Am I crazy for thinking this? Should I utilize the DOL? Does anyone know anything about this or has anyone experienced anything like this? I have jumped through hoops and filled out literal stacks of paperwork to try and prevent my paycheck from being deducted, even though I think that it is illegal for them to do so. But I’m not sure if the FMCSA act over rides anything on the FLSA stuff.
