    If you are salary, can the company dock your pay for missed work?
    I am a salaried employee, I was told when I accepted this job that I would make X amount for the entire year. Even though I work untold amounts of overtime, can my company dock my pay for not working a full work week every once in a while?

    Do they have a written policy?

    I have had salary jobs and received X number of days off for vacation, X number for sick leave. When anyone exceeded those days they did not get paid.

    I don't think this is unreasonable and it's legal.

    If you are working a lot of overtime have you asked about "comp" time or bonuses? At some point it's an unfair situation.
