I work at a pool store in Illinois and for the past week, I have been traveling back forth to a new pool that we are putting in about an hour and a half each way. I just received my check for that time and found that they only paid us for half of that travel time. Is this legal?
To me, it seems that I should be paid for the drive there and back. It's not like I want to be driving there every day and I feel like they are the ones that took the bid to put the pool in and they knew how far it was so we should be fully compensated. I 've been working much longer days than I really want to and it makes me mad that I'm not getting paid for an hour and a half each day. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
