Did you get your paycheck and find that your account is missing a few hundred (or thousand)? Your supervisor justifies it by saying that “your work was not up to par”? Does he have the right to do that?

Unless your contract or internal rules explicitly state that your pay can be reduced for certain misconduct, your employer cannot just “take” your money. Wages are determined by the employment contract, and changes must be in writing and mutually agreed.
Start with the payroll accountant – ask why you received less money. If you don’t get a reasonable explanation, write to the employer asking for extra pay.
If you can’t reach an agreement, you can contact the labour inspectorate. The employer can order the employer to make amends or impose a fine.
As a last resort, you can take legal action to recover your wages – often with interest for late payment.
