employment/ labor:
does an employer have to pay class fees plus hourly wage to employees for attending required work-related classes? My boss is requiring all of us to attend a 8 hour long course on attitudes at the workplace and has paif $69 for each ticket but says hes not going to pay us for any hours that day...
Additional information
If a CPR class is mandatory, is the employer required to pay for the course? I understand that the employer must pay for the hours to take the course. Answers (3)

If this is employer mandated training, it would count as "hour worked" and be compensable under the Washington Minimum Wage Act.
