Commission problems?

California law treats earned commissions as wages. That means your commissions are protected under the California Labor Code, and employers have strict rules they must follow.

Commission agreements must be in writing, signed by the employee, and clearly explain how commissions are calculated and paid. Problems can arise when employers change commission terms, impose chargebacks, recover negative draw balances, or withhold commissions after separation.
