Salespeople claim Hermès store cheats them out of commissions

The luxe Hermès store on Madison Avenue keeps its salespeople in the dark about how commissions are calculated, and then stiffs them, a new lawsuit charges.“Hermès is saying take what we give you — we’re Hermès and you’re not,” Richard A. Roth, a lawyer representing two former salespeople, said Friday.
New hires are told to expect a 1.25-percent commission on most sales, according to the lawsuit. Plaintiff Ewern Chaney, 28, of Manhattan estimated that he had generated $3.8  million in revenue but only made $60,000 in commissions from November 2012 to March 2014. He was paid a wage of $19 an hour. Chaney and Winifred Hu are seeking unspecified damages. A Hermès spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.
