Employee Rights
Employment Agreement
California
I have a question about California severance pay
Just received a notice from company for an immediate layoff
Christopher M.
There is no requirement under California law that a company pay severance to a terminated employee. Your severance pay will be controlled by either your employment agreement or employee handbook. However there are certain things, like paying you your final paycheck immediately that your company will be required to do under California law.
Employee Rights
Employment Handbook
California
Can my employer legally enforce a new policy in the employment handbook without notifying or obtaining consent from employees?
I recently received an updated copy of the employment handbook at my workplace, which included a new policy that significantly changes the dress code requirements. However, I was not notified about this change beforehand, nor was I asked to provide any consent or agreement to the new policy. I am wondering if my employer has the legal right to enforce this policy without proper notification or obtaining consent from the employees.
Patrick W.
Yes. If you are in an at will state and your employment is not for a period of time, your continued employment and aware of the new policy is adequate grounds for enforcing a new policy as a basis for employment termination or employment discipline.
Employee Rights
Sales Commission Agreement
California
Can a sales commission agreement be enforced if it was not signed by both parties?
I work as a sales representative for a company and recently discovered that my commission structure was changed without my knowledge or consent. I was never given a new sales commission agreement to sign, and the changes were only communicated to me verbally. I have been receiving reduced commission payments for the past few months, and I am wondering if the original commission agreement can still be enforced even though it was not signed by both parties, or if the verbal changes are legally binding.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm sorry for your situation. Generally, an agreement can be enforced by the actions of the parties, by written agreement, or by oral agreement. Hello! I'm sorry for your situation. Generally, an agreement can be enforced by the actions of the parties, by a written agreement, or by oral agreement. In your case, you mentioned that the changes were communicated to you verbally. Assuming that the agreement you had was not for some fixed term and did not require advanced written notice, changes to the agreement are generally going to be legally allowed. The best thing to do is to check your original agreement to see if it was for a fixed term or if changes needed specific procedures (e.g., written notice). Happy trails!
Employee Rights
Employment Handbook
California
Can my employer change the policies in the employment handbook without notifying the employees?
I recently discovered that my employer made significant changes to the employment handbook, including policies regarding vacation time, sick leave, and disciplinary procedures, without notifying the employees or providing us with an updated version of the handbook. I am concerned about the legality of these changes and whether my employer can enforce them without proper notification and acknowledgment from the employees.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry this is happening to you. Generally, if you have a contract (the handbook or policy), then you are bound to those terms. If the employer changes the terms, they are allowed to; however, they need to give you some notice of the change in those specific terms in advance. This means that they should give you notice equal to the time between pay periods (e.g. two weeks). If they make a change, then it's not technically enforceable until you get proper notice. The notice does not need to be in writing. Good luck! Dolan
Employee Rights
Termination Letter
California
Can my employer terminate me without providing a written termination letter?
I recently received notice of termination from my employer, but I was not provided with a written termination letter outlining the reasons for my termination. I have heard that it is a legal requirement for employers to provide a written termination letter, and I am unsure about my rights in this situation. I would like to know if my employer can terminate me without providing a written termination letter and what implications this may have for my legal rights and potential legal recourse.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry that you got this notice of termination. The law doesn't require specifically that any notice be in writing. There is some misinformation online, but the Department of Labor and Industries has laid out a comment on this - https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/TerminationOfEmployment.pdf I'm am very sorry about this+ and best of luck.
