A.Hello Sir!
As per the facts which have been provided, the law states that the employer has the right to reclaim the overpaid sum back. However, employees and workers are protected under section 13 of the Employment Rights Act,1996 for any unlawful deduction from their wages. Your employer can only ask you to pay back money if it’s for something you’ve specifically agreed to in writing.
Hope this clarifies your query and requirement.
Thank You!
