Definition and Examples
- Definition
- Employer withholding refers to the process where employers deduct a portion of an employee's wages or salary to satisfy obligations (e.g., tax obligations, garnishment as a remedy from a prior judgment). In the case of tax obligations, this withheld amount is then remitted to the appropriate tax authorities on behalf of the employee, helping individuals meet their tax liabilities throughout the year.
