Kansas Deductions

Can anyone that does business in Kansas please let me know whether or not their interpretation of the Kansas Wage Payment Law allows deductions from paychecks for broken pagers, phones, or damages to computers?? -- I don't think it does but need to confirm or find out I'm wrong! - Thanks

"The regulations [for the KWPA] also specify deductions that don't accrue to the benefit of the employee and thus can't be made under any circumstances, even with the written consent of the employee:
* deductions for cash and inventory shortages, breakage, returned checks, or bad credit card sales;
* losses resulting from burglaries, robberies, or alleged negligent acts;
* deductions for uniforms, special tools, or special equipment that aren't necessary to the performance of the assigned duties and that are customarily supplied by you; or
* any other deduction not specified by the KWPA or the KDOL regulations."
Hope this helps. tk
