I'm a 100% commissioned sales person working in the services business. My commissions are based on consultants working. They are on long term projects and I get commissions for every hour they work. In our contract it says, if I leave I will earn commissions for up to 30 days of my notice date. Being this is an annuity business and these consultants could be there for years, what am I entitled to ask as a lump sum being that this could run in the high 5 figures or more.

I can't believe the commission agreement doesn't limit the time period. Certainly the employer couldn't mean to keep paying commissions to long terminated employees in perpetuity. :eek:

If you think your contract really says this, then you need to talk to a lawyer.
