I really don't know what Virginia requires of employers whose employees are all paid strictly on commission. You may at the very least be required to pay for Workers' Compensation. Whether you have to provide employee benefits or withhold taxes, I could not say. Before you go out in town to retain a civilian attorney, soldier, how about checking with your base legal affairs officer or a JAG officer? If you want to confer with a civilian business attorney near you, you can find one at
attorneypages.com.
