Adding Employee for Group Practice in Gusto- Commission Based and not Overtime Eligible, it says they need to earn federal minimum pay, which is not possible with startup fee split practice
hello, hoping people can help me out
i’m a fairly new group practice owner. I’m in the process of adding a new employee in the gusto payroll system.
I’m presented with an option called compensation type, and there’s an option to choose commission not eligible for overtime, and commission eligible for overtime.
if I choose commission only no overtime, I get a big warning that says federal laws say that employees in this category should be paid at least $684 a week per year
if I choose commission only and eligible for overtime than a big warning, pops up, saying that this person must earn at least the minimum wage
Of course, in the group practice, we are working on a feast split basis, and this employee is working only to see 10 clients per week. There’s no way that she would earn $684 per week. Or the minimum wage.
Any ideas? What’s my best course of action here? I feel like gusto is not capturing the practicalities of working for a group practice that has a feast split model. Plus we a startup and very few patients and referrals coming in at this time.
Not sure what to select here if you have any ideas, please let me know!
thanks
