    We've been told by our state DOL that mandated meetings and workshops scheduled on Saturdays makes it a "work day" and if that exceeds 40 hours worked in the week you must pay overtime. We've since asked folks to take a day off during the week if they are attending Saturday meetings. All expenses incurred by the employee for the sake of the employer must be reimbursed to the employee.
