Effective January 1, 2013, AB 1396 requires ALL California employers to use written commission agreements that set forth the method by which commissions are computed and paid. In addition, employees are entitled to receive a signed copy of the agreement and must provide employers with a signed acknowledgment of receipt. Thus, all California employers who pay employees commissions should begin the process of developing their written commission agreements so that they are prepared to implement the agreements by January 1, 2013.
To learn more about AB 1396 and other important updates, we encourage you to join East County Personnel Association’s luncheon this week. During this luncheon, East County Personnel Association will go over their Semi Annual Legal Update reviewing legislation, agency regulations and case law developments from the first half of 2012 and looking ahead to those anticipated in the second half of the year. Areas to be discussed include:
- The most important California and federal case law developments and how they impact California employers
- The eagerly awaited Brinker v. Superior Court decision and what it means for California employers
- The new wage notice required by the California Wage Theft Prevention Act as of January 1, 2012 – AB 469
