103 CMR 405.08 - Mandatory Work Release Deductions
Mandatory deductions from wages earned through participation in a work release program shall be entered on the FAS I/I or C/C Transaction screen. The work release deductions include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) Any authorized
assessment including, but not limited to, court assessments, fines,
restitution, victim and witness assessments and other legislatively authorized
assessments.
(2)
Room
and Board. Room and Board shall be at a rate to be determined by
the Commissioner. Room and board collections shall be deposited into the
account for Room and Board funds on the FAS, and a check in the amount of these
collections shall be sent to the Executive Director of Administrative Services
on a monthly basis. In the alternative, the Department may utilize a Central
Room and Board Account. The Executive Director of Administrative Services shall
then ensure that room and board revenue is properly forwarded to the State
Treasurer. I/Is or C/Cs who were employed prior to entering Department custody
and are now receiving worker's compensation benefits shall continue to have a
room and board deduction taken from the gross benefit amount
received.
(3) Amounts required to
meet the actual and necessary food, travel, and other expenses of the I/I when
released for employment.
(4) Any
amount as ordered by other state or federal agencies with a legal right thereto
(i.e., Department of Revenue, Welfare, Internal
Revenue).
(5) Deduction of the
amount for restitution ordered as a result of the disciplinary process, whether
such restitution is ordered on a one-time or ongoing basis.
(6) Each I/I or C/C participating in a
work-release program shall have a minimum 25% of the I/I's or C/C's gross
salary designated as savings.
(7)
If an I/I or C/C receives any other monies as a result of their participation
in a work-release program, the Department may make deductions for room and
board.
