Outside sales to inside sales

[michelle.martin003@gmail.]

I am transitioning from 100% commission outside sales job to a 100% commission inside sales job here in Houston Texas. My question is am I entitled to salary/hourly and overtime in this new role as inside sales. I am required to be at the office Monday through Friday 8 to 5 and Saturdays 8 to 5. I've tried to find answers to this situation and it's all very confusing state?

I don't think you would be entitled to salary or "hourly" rate as long as your earnings exceed minimum wage. However, I think you'd be entitled to overtime since the exemption is for outside sales.

Contact the US DOL for additional information.

Also contact your state's DOL in case your state laws are more generous than federal laws.
