ok guys il try to keep this simple.
i got a job (commision only for first 2 months), they told me id get paid at end of october, they fucked me over+lied about my wages, so i left so i could look for another job (as alot of places, such as job centre, are shut at weekends)
My question: do they legally have to pay me the commision i earnt while i was there?? i wana ring them and see how they'llpay me (cash/cheque/etc) and when, but if they start being funny and refusing i wana know my rights!
thanx
BTW, i dunno if it makes any difference, but there was no problem with me leaving, it wasnt on bad terms+they were v nice about it.

i wouldnt hold much hope really, commission based jobs are a pain in the ass, i wouldnt touch one with a bargepole, they've usually got some way of getting out of it quite easily.
you may be right, i've only ever been in longer term employment
but i can't believe there is no employee protection, i do think you have a right to a contract because otherwise employers could treat you however the hell they want, and that, surely, is illegal?
They will say they never agreed, or that you never met the conditions, you will have to show they did.
If you still have the job advert that would be a good way to show your expectations.
thank god!!!!
