Legal Question in Business Law in Ohio

Unauthorized payroll deduction

Our company provides bonus for criteria met, my paycheck was deducted 1/2 and given to telemarketers without my knowledge or authorization. The owner falls back on it is my business and I can do what I want. Is this legal, that he is able to take money owed indiscriminately? Thank you for your help.
