No way. There would be no way for them to account for such an automatic deduction. Also, the notion seems insane.

One possible option would be that the employees, upon hire, opt to have the employer automatically deduct x amount of income, a la a 401K contribution. This type of deduction would have to be post-tax. technically, I could see that happening. But if it were voluntary, then your post isnt very interesting.
