Can I get paid for mandatory training?

Can i get paid overtime if my company has me training 40hrs a week and working 8 regular hours?

  • Answer:

    If you are a salaried employee then you are unlikely to get any overtime. In these troubled times, many salaried employees are working long hours and thankful to have a job. Even if you are hourly, I wouldn't push it. Training generally doesn't last long. If you came to me complaining that you want more money when I was making an investment to train you, it would be a huge red flag.
