Answer:

Clawback

Step-by-step explanation:

Clawbacks are usually carried out both by governments or businesses.

  • When governments decide to levy new taxes on activities that weren't supposed to be taxed.
  • An employer might request (or order) an employee to return a part of their paid salary for a certain labor infraction or penalty. For example many times sales representatives that are allowed to make sales on credit are "punished" if their clients don't pay their debt on time.
