I work in a pathology lab in California as a non-exempt, hourly paid employee. It’s very important for our fridges and freezers to maintain certain temperatures so they all have sensors installed and are registered on a 3rd party service’s website. I was recently given the responsibility to respond to alerts and phone calls about these temperature fluctuations and that I’d even have to come in to the office at the drop of a dime to move freezer contents to another freezer should the first one fail or not maintain it’s set temperature. The hours I’m responsible for monitoring this exceed my work week, but I haven’t received additional pay. I want to know if I’m entitled to some sort of compensation or if this is normal.
