Add Comment Question: I was working for a media firm that was paying myself commission based salary. I would be paid monthly as per agreed upon however my former employer started to not pay on time. Over the course of the year I was unfairly treated and when I was forced to confront my employer on default payments VIA bounced cheques I was let go. My wife has also been pregnant during this time and it has put a major financial strain on out bills. I was made promises of payment in FULL by dates which came and went. I did not receive FULL compensation as to what I was owed for work. I strongly believe my former employer let me go without justification, cause or legitimate reasons other then not being able to pay on time, in full or in confidence. I am still owed for the months of July-September and have not received my full compensation. I have also noticed that my work has been profited on after my exit which I have not been compensated for either. I have also witnessed other employees who were hired be unfairly compensated or openly mislead and was told or forced to "play along". I am not sure what to do. I did not have any vacation pay, health benefits, health and safety access, HR access resources. I feel taken advantage of. What are my options? Answer: Thanks for your question.
