As an "in-house employee" having all the standard legal deductions being made, charge backs are pure and simply illegal on both a state and federal level.
If you are an in-house employee and you receive a pay stub with any deductions other than the standard legal deductions such as tax, ss, ui, etc. and other such as tools, uniforms in some cases, a loan replacement, or a deduction that might otherwise benefit the employee such as a 401k, pension, retirement, etc. you may take that stub to the division of labor standards and act victimized and look to the case worker there as they are the smartest person you ever met and act in awe of all they do and their swelling ego will take over and they will then proceed to gnaw your employer a new rectal cavity.
As a contractor, if you signed a contract that doesn't allow you to warranty your work you are foolish. But if in fact no such clause was present and you are simply charged back without being allowed "remedy" ie, a chance to physically correct said defects shortly after the exact said defects were properly brought to your attention, you would most definitely be awarded those monies back to you in a court of law, but you must act on it on the first occurrence or you have now set up precedent that would allow such "charge backs".
