16 year old has worked 40 hours this week 'commission only'. Been dropped off in local areas to make appointments for a salesperson to call and give quotes for windows.
40 hours in the heat, today she visited over 100 homes. No escape as they were picked up and dropped off miles away and it got later and later they were picked up.
I've searched all over the net and got conflicting info.
- It seems to say that it is legal providing it doesn't come to less than minimum wage. If it does the difference must be made up.
- The conflicting info is that it can be 'commission only' with no pay if they're self employed.
I don't know what the truth is, does anyone know the actual answer?
And 'Pakistanis don't count' - she made one appointment on the first day to be told today that it 'doesn't count as they were Pakis' and 'no Asians count'
It cannot possibly be legal to have 16 year olds walking 40 hours in this heat to knock on 400 plus doors for no money, can it?
