An employer can reduce your pay and hours as they see fit. However, they cannot pay you less than the minimum wage. Your consent is implied if you continue to work there. Most good employers will meet with you to explain what is happening and so it is not a surprise when you get your check.

Yes. In fact, an employer may be required to deduct items such as federal and state taxes, social security, Medicare, and other items, as required by law.

In most instances, yes.

If you are referring to a wage garnishment a court order is necessary before the employer can withhold any funds.
