Document background
The Employer Employee Sales Commission Agreement is essential for businesses operating in South Africa that employ sales professionals on a commission basis. This document is specifically designed to comply with South African employment law while establishing clear terms for commission-based compensation. It's typically used when hiring sales professionals where a significant portion of their earnings will be derived from commission on sales. The agreement covers crucial aspects such as base salary (if applicable), commission rates, calculation methods, payment schedules, sales targets, and performance expectations. It also addresses important legal requirements under South African legislation, including the Basic Conditions of Employment Act and Labour Relations Act, ensuring proper protection for both employer and employee rights in commission-based employment arrangements.
