Amway sued over alleged failure to pay minimum wage
Lawsuit filed
William Orage sued Amway, claiming that his principal task was recruiting new independent business owners rather than sales, and alleging that he received no pay for training and recruitment time. The claims are allegations in the lawsuit.
Source excerpt
Orage, who left Amway in 2019, says he made only two product sales during his four years with the company and alleges that he received no pay for the time he spent in training and trying, ultimately without success, to recruit new IBOs.
William Orage claims in a suit filed Friday in state court in Oakland that his “principal task” at Amway was not sales but the recruitment of new IBOs to pay Amway more fees and buy more products.
