I’m in a situation with my manager who is suggesting that clock-in starts when the employee arrives to the site of work. Effectively saying that everyone should be coming in 15 minutes earlier than their start time.
The majority of what I read online was about security checks when leaving the premises instead of entering. And the results of a couple class actions seem like the law has loose interpretation.
Wondering what your experiences have been like dealing with this situation. Are you paid for your time traveling on company premises?
For ref this takes place in California.
Working in the security field, I punch in right before I could be reasonably expected to perform any work duties. That typically means, punching in right after I park, or right after I enter the post and talk to whoever is on duty. If I had to go through a security screening for work, I would absolutely expect to be paid for it (so punch in prior).
