Big deductions on paycheck red flag for human trafficking?

Answered by:

Question:

We have a customer who is a young and receives a very small paycheck. It looks like some really big deductions are held by the employer. Is this normal?

Answer:

This is considered a red flag for human trafficking. A legitimate business may have some illegitimate purposes integrated into the business. Best to refer this to BSA.
