Colorado,
Let me start by stating that I am paid in part by a salary and in part by commission. The commission part is paid to us when and if the customer pays. This some times can take months.
1 have a few questions,

Is it ok for the employer to pay you for a job several months after the job is completed? I’m used to commission on the next paycheck.

Does the employer have to give you some way to track what jobs he is paying on?

If you quit does he still owe you for all completed jobs, or after the last pay period can he just keep the commission I earned?

And is it OK for them to have a policy that if you are in a car accident with the work truck that you have to pay the deductible? It’s $1000.00

Thanks

Cheers
Coywench

Sorry, I didn't see this. Looks like nobody else did either. :(

The issue is, when are commissions earned. If they are not earned until the customer pays, that is a legal policy. The policy of not paying commissions unless the employee is on the payroll when it is paid is likely also legal. Very few states regulate commissions to this extent.

Regarding the accident and deductible, probably not.

We only have a couple of responders here from Colorado, and neither of them are here all that often. You may want to just call or email the state DOL and ask your questions.

We apologize. Usually, someone responds within a day or so.
