Re: docking paychecks
Such an agreement may be enforceable where it is accepted as a customary practice of the establishment by its salesforce. If this is new then it is not a customary practice and would require acceptance for the agreement to be binding.
If the business is attempting to short you on commissions then this is a matter subject to Maryland's wage payment statute.
A company may change its policy with regard to payment of commission based wages.
