That is illegal.
1 you must have breaks and lunch
2. If you are hourly he must pay you to stay late. If he doesn't he is breaking the law.
Tell him you have plans and can't stay late unless he is going to compensate you for your time. He is taking advantage of you. DON'T work during your lunch. |

the best thing you can do is keep track of your hours and at the end of a month report it to the labor board. |

Yes, that is illegal. Go to the Labor Board in your local area and report it. In all actuality, you are only required to work 8 hrs. a day and no more that 40 hrs. a week. Anything over that is suppose to be overtime. You are being taken advantage of by your boss, and the sooner you take care of this matter, the better off you will be. |

Keep this job for now, but keep your eye open for something better. It's much easier to take on a fresh new boss than it is to try to change the old one. |

Stand up for your rights - NO PAY, NO WORK. If you let your boss get away with this then it'll never stop and he'll do it to other people. |

You DO NOT have to work anywhere and not get paid. (if in the USA)
Perhaps if you stand up for yourself you will see a change... tell the boss how you feel and start looking for a better job.
Good luck !! : ) |

We here in america have what are called workers rights and him making you do extra work during lunch is illigal and against your rights and also it is illigal to force you to do work after hours without pay you are payed to do work by the hour not by the amound of work done . |

That is against OSHA regulations www.osha.gov. Check them out, they make you take the break and make sure that you get paid what you deserve. That's illegal and the employer can get into serious trouble. I would start looking for another job if i were you and give 2 week notice and leave.
good luck |

Happy Worker

You should be happy that you even have a job in this economy. I work over for my employer regularly without pay because it is simply the right thing to do. It is a measure of character and integrity. We have been reported before and it does not work. They always find out who did it and they have other ways to fire you. If you don't like to work over, find another job and let us "productive" Americans help continue to forward capitalism and the free enterprise. Want worker rights? Go to Europe. |
