Can my employer cut my pay due to billable hours?

Question

My employer wants to raise my billable hours from 80 to 100. My question is, can my employer cut my pay if I do not meet the 100 billable hours quota?

Answer 1

If you are a salaried, exempt employee, your employer cannot cut your pay. Part of the exempt status (allowing your employer not to pay overtime) involves getting paid the same amount every week whether you work 1 or 100 hours. His only recourse would be to fire you.

Answer 2

no he cant cut your pay for any quota if he does then you have a reason to draw unemployment
