My manager did not notify HR when I went on medical leave, so payroll continued to cut regular paychecks and deposit them into my 401k and bank accounts.
Well, I quit my job, and then HR started harassing me about paying the company back. So I wrote them a check for the wages paid me during my leave.
Two months later, I get a letter from the company, saying I owe them for what they put into my 401k, including the company match amount. WHY?
If I withdraw that money, I have to pay a penalty. If I take the money from my personal account, then it's like they're forcing me to make 401k contributions.
Can they legally force me to do this?
Serious answers only, please - "gamers" will be reported.
