FAQ

For example, if you decide to quit, you can do so without giving advance notice, unless your work contract or employee handbook says you should. Even though Texas law doesn't require you to give two weeks' notice, doing so can show professionalism and help you leave on good terms with your current employer.

In general, Texas employers have wide discretion to implement and modify the terms of a commission plan or bonus agreement, but generally cannot interfere with an employee's earned commissions.

If an employee quit while in possession of company property and is due a final paycheck, the employer cannot hold wages to recover the property unless the employer is authorized to do so by law, is required to do so by a court, or if the employer has written authorization from the employee for the deduction.

In Texas, the employment-at-will doctrine is a basic rule that guides how jobs work between employers and employees. It means that either you or your employer can end the job at any time, for any reason, or even for no reason at all, as long as it doesn't break any laws or contracts.

Under the employment at will doctrine, an employer can change an employee's hours with or without notice.

The federal minimum wage provisions are contained in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour effective July 24, 2009. Many states also have minimum wage laws. Some state laws provide greater employee protections; employers must comply with both.

Employer Changes the Commission Structure The Texas Supreme Court established a notice requirement in General Mills v. Hathaway. Before an employer can change the terms and conditions of employment, the employer first must provide the employee unequivocal notice of the changes beforehand.
