Legal to Change Commission Percentage without Consent? |
My friend works on a combination base salary and commission pay structure. She has it clearly stated in her contract that the commission on any new or future business is 10% but has just been told that her commission has been cut in half to 5%. Is this legal in California? She should go talk with her boss and then maybe Human Resources. Sadly, there may be nothing she can do as companies are always readjusting commission plans, and usually the wrong way for the employees. She might be being penalized for poor work performance. If it is written in her contract and doesn't have any caveats that it can be changed without notice, then she has room to negotiate. If the contract specifically says the commission is changeable, she'll have to suck it up or find a new job. She has a contract... time for her to hire a lawyer. Does the contract have any timeframe on it? Otherwise that could be considered starting rules, not necessarily forever. |
