The director of my company decided to deduct 20% of an employee's salary, but he did not provide anything in writing. Now, he is blaming me for showing 100% of that employee's salary, and then I paid 20% out of my pocket to the employee. What should I do now? Please give me some suggestions.

Dear Anshul,
In private organizations, the atmosphere that prevails while taking ultimate critical decisions in any matter is quite informal. The people in the immediate link of the hierarchy have to succumb to the unwritten principle "The boss is always right" and execute the decision accordingly or quit.
Before finding an appropriate answer to your query, it might be relevant to get an answer to the following query: When the director has already informed his decision orally, what prevented you from asking him once again whether to reduce the salary of the individual by 20% or not while preparing the salary bill?

The query is silent as to the ground on which the Director had 'decided' to deduct the salary. Was the employee served any show cause notice? Was it meant to be a punishment or because of any loss caused to the company? In the absence of material facts, it would be too hasty to offer any meaningful suggestion.
