<prompt> Human: Im in Missouri, hourly employee. I am going to a 2 day Fri-Sat training seminar. Employer providing vehicle, gas, food, 1 night hotel stay. It is about 3 hours one-way to the seminar.Traveling 3 hours to the seminar very early Friday, then 8.5 hours actually in training. Then stay at hotel.Then Saturday 6 hours training. Then, travel home. I was told I would get paid for 8 hours for Fridays time.Is this legal to do this, or should I question this policy with employer?I feel like I should be paid for training and travel time, for a total of about 20.5 hours for the 2 days. Am I wrong?Does it matter if I am the driver or passenger? Thanks.  <response>: You probably arent entitled to compensation for travel time, but if the training is mandatory then you should get paid for all of the training on both Friday and Saturday. I would imagine the extra half hour on Friday is a lunch break, so you probably dont get paid for that, but it seems like you should be getting at least 14 hours here. I would check in rlegaladvice as well, someone there might be more familiar with Missouri state wage and hour laws. But under FLSA you should be paid for any mandatory training.
