When an employee performs a service for an employer, the time spent performing that service is generally considered to be working time. Under wage and hour laws, the employee must be fairly compensated for any working time.
Working time not only includes the time working under normal hours but also includes any time spent working outside of normal hours. For instance, if an employee works overtime, then the employer must pay that employee a fair overtime compensation.
