I need to know if you are suppose to be a salary employee, is your check suppose to be deducted if you are late or absent? I live in California.

Salaried people can be exempt or non exempt for overtime rules generally if you aren't paid overtime they don't deduct small amounts of time.
They are allowed to deduct if they want to.
I do the salaried payroll at work and deduct for those that I know go home on time and never come early. If I know someone is working early everyday and staying late every night and once they take off early because they can I ignore it. I do deduct vacation and sick leave that is whole days for sure.

If you're a few minutes late, probably not. But if you are absent usually they will deduct the time from your vacation/personal days/sick days. Same goes if you take half a day. If you don't have any time off left they can deduct the day from your check but this varies widely depending on company policy.

Check the company handbook, if they have one. Normally salaried workers are paid by the month and don't report miscellaneous time off. But there is no state law governing it.

It can be. It's up to the employer. Usually they won't deduct if you are a few minutes late and it doesn't happen often, but they can if they want to.
