I am a commission only, outside sales person. After over 13 years at my company, they have put a tracker on us and are literally questioning every hour of our day and weeks.
An outside salesperson with 13 years of experience on pure commission states that the company recently began using tracking devices and questioning their work hours on an hourly basis for each day and week. Additionally, the company no longer allows remote work days and does not count such time toward daily work hours. The employee, working in the alcohol distribution industry, needs to create wine lists, beer menus, cocktail lists, and presentations at home, but these remote work hours are not counted toward daily work hours. The employee wishes to understand their legal rights as a 100% commission outside salesperson and seeks related advice.
They are also saying that our home office/admin days are no longer allowed and do not count that time toward our work hours that day. I work in alcohol distribution and am required to put together wine lists, beer menus, cocktail lists, presentations, etc which I need to do from home and they aren’t counting those hours of work in the hours per day we work. I just want to know my rights as a100% commission outside sales person. Can anyone give me any advice?
