Without knowing what the items were it's difficult to know whether this is an employer trying to duck paying wages or whether he has a legitimate charge. Still, I don't know if forfeiture of pay is something he can just do on his own so you may want to contact the wage and hour division of the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry.
