The employer cannot deduct this amount from a future paycheck of the employee for a different pay period.(3) Subsections (1) and (2) of this section do not apply if an employer was unable to deduct the maximum allowable employee share of the premium for a pay period due to a lack of sufficient employee wages for that pay period.Wash.
