Summary

AB 2675, Swanson. Employment contract requirements. Existing law requires that whenever an employer enters into a contract of employment with an employee for services to be rendered within this state and the contemplated method of payment of the employee involves commissions, the contract must be in writing and set forth the method by which the commissions are to be computed and paid. This bill would exempt from this requirement temporary, variable incentive payments that increase, but do not decrease, payment under the written contract.
