Employment Contract

Florida

Asked on Feb 23, 2023

Do I have to provide my employees with a paycheck stub?

We find employee pay stubs laying around in the warehouse and left in company vehicles

Diane D.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

Florida doesn't require employers to provide a pay stub with a paycheck, nor do they have to offer them in electronic format. Pay stub legislation in Florida instead defaults to federal laws under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).

Employment Contract

Georgia

Asked on Apr 12, 2025

Can a company withhold a performance bonus if I leave before the payout date?

I recently resigned from my job, and in my employment contract, there was a provision for a performance bonus to be paid out at the end of the year. However, the payout date is a few months away, and I am concerned that the company may try to withhold the bonus since I am no longer employed with them. I want to know if they have the legal right to do so, or if I am still entitled to receive the bonus based on my performance during my time of employment.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 15, 2025

This is a great—and very common—question. Whether the company can legally withhold your performance bonus after resignation depends heavily on how your employment agreement is written and how the bonus is classified. Key Factors to Consider: 1. Is the Bonus Discretionary or Earned? If your contract defines the bonus as discretionary, the employer generally has the right to decide whether to pay it and can condition it on continued employment. If the bonus is based on meeting specific performance goals or metrics, and those have been satisfied, it may be considered earned—even if the payment date is in the future. 2. Does the Contract Require You to Be Employed on the Payout Date? Many agreements include language stating the employee must be actively employed on the bonus payout date. If such a clause exists, the company may be within its rights to withhold the bonus, even if the performance was completed. 3. What Is the Bonus Period? If your bonus was based on a performance period that has already ended (such as a calendar or fiscal year), and you met your goals, you may have a stronger case for claiming the bonus as earned compensation. Georgia-Specific Note: In Georgia, employment is at-will, and courts generally uphold the terms of a written employment agreement. However, Georgia courts have also recognized that earned wages (which can include bonuses if not discretionary) must be paid. If the bonus is performance-based and the company has paid similar bonuses under the same conditions in the past, you may have grounds to assert that the payment is owed. What You Can Do: Review your employment agreement and any bonus policy documents closely. Look for phrases like “discretionary,” “earned,” and “must be employed on the payout date.” If the language is unclear, you may want to consult an attorney to evaluate whether the company is legally permitted to withhold the bonus—or if you may have a claim based on how the bonus was structured and earned. If you would like help reviewing your agreement, I’d be happy to assist.

Employment

Noncompete Agreement

Connecticut

Asked on Jun 3, 2023

Noncompete agreement and promotions?

I recently accepted a promotion within my company and was asked to sign a noncompete agreement. I am concerned that if I accept the promotion and then leave the company, that I will not be able to take a similar position with another company. I am also worried that if I don't accept the promotion, I may be at risk of being terminated. I need to know what my rights are and what the implications are of signing the noncompete agreement.

Thomas L.

Answered Jun 16, 2023

It depends on the terms of the non-compete and the size of your employer. Without seeing the agreement and knowing the size of your employer, I can't offer more advice.

Employment

Dental Associate Contract

Texas

Asked on Jun 9, 2024

What are the key elements to consider when reviewing a dental associate contract?

I am a dentist who has been offered a dental associate position at a private practice, and I am seeking legal advice regarding the key elements I should be aware of when reviewing the dental associate contract. I want to ensure that the terms of the contract are fair and reasonable, and that they protect my rights and interests as an associate. Additionally, I would like to understand any potential implications or restrictions within the contract that may affect my future career opportunities or potential for growth within the dental industry.

Darryl S.

Answered Jun 18, 2024

There are many complex issues to review in a contract of this type and I've found that the employment agreements given to medical professionals are frequently very one-sided to the benefit of the employer with complex non-compete and non-solicit restrictions. The things that should be outlined include the job responsibilities, compensation (including bonus strux), benefits, and probably most importantly termination provisions that outline compensation for termination without cause and what constitutes cause. Lastly, I alway recommend a dispute resolution process that involves mediation and arbitration rather than the courts.
