The Pay Stub
G.S. 95-25.13 — a statement of deductions each pay period, and a pay period's notice before a cut
In North Carolina, the statute's statement is of deductions. Every employer furnishes each employee an itemized statement of the deductions made from wages for each pay period they are made.
