Question for dealership auto techs

I would guess that in most places it would be illegal for the employer
to collect this from the employee unless the "employee" was an
independant contractor(in which case there would probably be a legal
agreement anyway). These are part of the "normal" business expenses
which the business owner is responsible for.

Having said that, most states are "employment at will" which means the
employer could terminate you without a reason at any time. Carelessness
and excessive loss of company money is a good reason if you need one.

In my business(not auto repair), technicians have damaged parts,
installed them unecessarily, lost parts as well as just wasted company
time. At some point I have to look at the employee to be sure they
aren't losing more money than they are bringing in.
