If the error rate gets too high, can we dock workers’ pay?
Q: We have a few employees whose job is to audit various items,  updating the data when information is incorrect. Sometimes we have to  re-audit the audit. In Florida, is it legal to dock the pay of these  hourly employees if the provided data contains errors? Secondly, we have  a 1099 contractor who performs a similar task. I assume there needs to  be language in our scope of work terms about quality issues before any  penalties can be enforced. Am I right? – Anonymous, Florida
