If I am a full commissioned employee (not outside sales or independent contract) does my company have to make sure I make at least minimum wage?

Generally speaking, yes. Want to give us a few details? :confused:

Well I am paid on delivered sales and as a new employee,who didn't receive a draw check, I started after the 1st day of the month I wanted to see if I would receive at least minmum wage on my first check.

Yes, you must be paid at least minimum wage for all hours worked. Will you be getting a "draw" in the future?

BTW, "draws" are not common for nonexempt salespersons primarily because of the minimum wage requirement; they are common for outside salespersons, however.
