Can Employers Interfere with Employees' Autonomy in Salary Expenditure Decisions?

Based on Clause 2, Article 94 of the 2019 Labor Code, the principles of wage payment are stipulated as follows:

The employer must pay wages directly, in full, and on time to the employee. In cases where the employee cannot receive the wages directly, the employer may pay the wages to a person legally authorized by the employee.

The employer is not allowed to restrict or interfere with the employee's autonomous right to use their wages; they must not compel the employee to spend their wages on purchasing goods or using services from the employer or any other entity designated by the employer.

Thus, in principle, the employer is not allowed to restrict or interfere with the employee's autonomous right to use their wages; they must not compel the employee to spend their wages on purchasing goods or using services as stipulated above. This sum of money and its use is entirely dependent on the employee.

Respectfully!
