The law requires that Fortune International Group make certain deductions from every employee’s compensation. Among these are applicable federal, state, and local income taxes. Fortune International Group also must deduct Social Security taxes on each employee’s earnings up to a specified limit that is called the Social Security “wage base.” Fortune International Group matches the amount of Social Security taxes paid by each employee. From time to time, additional deductions may also be authorized
by court action. On those occasions, Fortune International Group will make every effort to notify the employee before deductions are made.
If you have questions concerning why deductions were made from your paycheck or how they were
calculated, your supervisor can assist in having your questions answered.
