Legal Question in Workers Comp in Connecticut

Boss deducting $ from commissions

Hello,

My boss is deducting monies from my commission based salary. She totals the amount I of sales I did, subtracts my commission (50%) then deducts another 11 1/2 percent off of my pay and says it is for her costs. This doesn't seem ethical. Shouldn't the costs be deducted from us both. I have to pay for my own labcoats and some other personal supplies.

Re: Boss deducting $ from commissions

The answer to your question largely depends on your employment status (employee vs. independent contractor) as well as on any employment/consulting agreement you may have with your boss.

Please feel free to call me tomorrow. There is no fee for the initial consultation.
