I work through a temporary staffing company that promotes "daily work...daily pay" but charge me a $4 per day "check writing fee" for the daily paycheck to be issued. Is this allowed?

Deductions from pay
You ask whether a temp agency that promotes daily pay can charge a check writing fee for the daily paycheck. Kentucky law requires that employees receive the full amount of their wages due on their "regular" payday. If the temp agency has a regular payday on which you are paid without deductions, charging a fee for being paid "early" may be lawful.
