    As a result of COVID-19, my tenant enforced his contractual right to withhold paying me rent during lockdown. I acknowledge this right although I too am affected by negative business. Am I protected in any way? Can I ask him to terminate his lease? Will I be compensated in the future?

    1. Rolan says:

      There is no compensation scheme as yet from government that protects the property owner due to Covid-19 suspension of rental payments.

  2. Commission based wage from Paola says:

    I am employed full-time and my salary is totally based on a percentage commission which I earn on the sales I make with retail shops around the island. I am only guaranteed a salary of €100 per week if my commission does not reach the €100.

    While in previous years I managed reasonably well because sales were good, currently business is not so good and I am not managing to live decently with the commission-based pay I manage to generate.

    I have realised that my weekly pay is not managing to reach the minium wage. Because business is bad my wage is paid late by my employer.

    Am I being paid correctly?

    1. Rolan says:

      The weekly minimum wage must be guaranteed by your employer and your salary must be paid regularly.
