Employees generally must pay for workers to attend orientation unless the employee is exempt under federal law. Most employees are entitled to overtime pay for attending mandatory meetings before the start of a shift. Overtime pay is calculated at one and half times your regular rate of pay. Salaried workers may also be entitled to overtime pay for attending orientation.
