The ruling on taking a percentage of workers' wages

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I have workers, and I take money from them called a percentage. Is it permissible for the sponsor to take this money from the workers?

Answer:
This is not permissible. The workers are employed on a salary based on the recruitment contract, and he should not take a percentage from them, because this is their earnings and their work. So what makes it permissible for him to do so? Yes.
