Which of the following withholding orders is explicitly supported in Workday?

• A. Federal Administrative Wage Garnishment
• B. Public Health Deduction
• C. Student Parking Fine
• D. Vacation Pay

Answer: (A)

Withholding orders are formal commands to take a portion of an employee’s wages to satisfy a debt. In Workday, the system has built-in support for specific garnishment types that are recognized as official withholding orders. Federal Administrative Wage Garnishment is a defined category that Workday can automatically process, enforce, and prioritize according to the order details and the employee’s pay information. This explicit support means it can be set up to pull the correct amount from wages in alignment with federal requirements.

The other options don’t fit as official withholding orders in Workday. A public health deduction is typically treated as a regular deduction rather than an official wage garnishment. A student parking fine is a personal liability or fine and would usually be handled outside the garnishment framework. Vacation pay is compensation being paid out, not a deduction from wages to satisfy a debt, so it isn’t a withholding order either. Therefore, the best answer is Federal Administrative Wage Garnishment.
