As an employer, does one have to pay employees for attending an employee meeting?

In general, employers are not obligated to pay employees for attending a meeting unless it is a required meeting that is relevant to the employee's job duties. However, an employee may be entitled to receive payment for attending certain meetings if the amount of time is beyond a normal expectation. It is best to check the contract or employee handbook for specific guidelines.
