Oklahoma non-exempt
Hello, I am an hourly customer service worker. My company is moving its entire customer service department remote/work from home. As a part of this deployment I am being asked to perform an internet speed test from home.
I have not been given time to conduct this test during my normal schedule. When I asked my supervisor how I’m supposed to track my time for this task he advised I wouldn’t be paid as the test would take 5-10 minutes.
Via google my main take away is im supposed to be paid for all time permitted or suffered to work.
I’m not sure if my question is “Can I be fired (employment terminated with out the ability to collect unemployment) if I never find time to conduct the speed test?“ or “Why would performing the test not be compensate?”
