If you worked in a sales job and were paid wholly or partly on commission, we would like to help you evaluate whether your employer owes you money.

What Is the Problem With Commission Sales Jobs?

Commission sales is a field that has recently been found by the courts to have many examples of unfair pay practices. Many companies ranging from grocery and jewelry stores to car dealerships to huge furniture chains have been found guilty of violating California wage rules.  The rules are designed to make sure salespeople and retail workers get paid what they’re fairly owed.

If you or someone you know has worked in commission sales or on an incentive pay system, you may have a claim. Our attorneys are currently investigating several industries that have a high percentage of commissioned employees in their workforce.

Types of Companies and Jobs

If you’ve worked for a company and have been paid on a time, piece rate, commission or other basis, these rules apply to you. Companies that typically use this kind of pay structure are in the business of selling or renting goods, to the public or to other companies, like furniture, large equipment, vehicles, and even mobile phones. Other industries like banking and financial services can have commission employees also.

Selling, driving and many other duties that are common at these companies are required to have rest breaks. The people most likely to have been a victim of labor and pay violations at these kinds of companies worked for incentive pay like commissions with a draw, or bonuses based on sales. If you or someone you know fits this profile, you may very well be victimized without knowing it. Please contact our attorneys for a case evaluation. If you’ve worked for a company in an industry like this but had manager type duties, these rule violations may not apply to your situation. Anyone paid on salary for doing work like supervising others that required technical knowledge based on special training or experience likely does not have a claim.
