Although the Licensing Board is constantly being called upon to arbitrate disputes between licensees in matters of employer/employee relations, Rule .0109 states that the Board ". . . has no jurisdiction to settle disputes between parties concerning such matters of contract as the rate of commissions, the division of Commissions, pay of salesmen., and similar matters."

To avoid possible misunderstandings between your employees, independent contractors or associates, the Board suggests that some form of written employment agreement or contract of association agreement be prepared and entered into which sets forth the terms of association. You are strongly advised, however, to seek legal counsel in the preparation of such agreements.
