I worked for a company that sold another company's services. I was an independent contractor technically (maybe not properly classified, I don't know) but I earned a lot of commission and was never paid. I have all the paperwork to prove the sales plus the installations were successful and can be looked up by the job number.
I was told by my employer that the company we sold services for would not pay out any commission older than 30 days. So I had 30 days to call them and figure out why I never got my money, and it took longer than that just to get ahold of them and have them look up the paperwork.
I never got my money. Is that legal for a major company to not pay their employees commission if it's older than 30 days?
This was the only sales/commission job I have ever had so I don't know if it's treated the same as wages...
