PF DEDUCTION OF EMPLOYER FROM EMPLOYEE

This query is : Resolved 

29 June 2020 Dear All

Can an employer reduce Gross salary by Rs 2,000/- to accommodate PF part of employee( Rs 1,500) from employee's hands itself? Example, if a person Gross is Rs 25,000/-, for which employee contributes 1500/- his part PF and employer another 1,500/- for June month salary. Where in July, his Gross is reduced to Rs 22,000/- so that Employer's share also is paid from employee.

If the same cannot be done through any section/law or by any legal case verdict, please mention the same.

Please feel to revert for further clarifications.

29 June 2020 Rules laid down by the Employees’ Provident Funds Scheme clearly state that the contribution made by the employer cannot be deducted from the member/employee’s salary component. This means that the employer can under no circumstances recover this amount from the salary of staff members.
