Frequently Asked Questions

Is pre shift setup work paid time?

Often yes. Tasks that are part of your job, such as starting computers, prepping a station or unlocking a store, may count as hours worked.

What if my employer says to clock in after setup?

A rule to clock in only after required tasks does not change whether that time counts as work. Unpaid required tasks may be owed.

Does a few minutes a day really matter?

It can. Unpaid minutes add up over weeks and months, and they can push a week into overtime.

What evidence helps a setup time claim?

System login times, door or badge logs, schedules, messages from managers and pay stubs can help show when work began.

How far back can I claim unpaid setup time?

Deadlines depend on your state and the type of claim. Federal wage claims generally must be filed within two years, or three if the violation was willful.

Does YesLawyer help with unpaid setup time claims in every state?

YesLawyer connects people with lawyers across the country, though state and case eligibility apply. Whether your claim can be taken depends on your state and the facts of your case.
