I believe this is also against federal law. My supervisor took about 10-15 minutes off each of my work days last week. When I confronted him about this he said it was department policy to adjust the time clock to meet the “scheduled” work time, however I have to get on site early in order to be able to make it to my job location on time for shift hand off. I have an email from corporate that I saved stating if I need to be on site to fulfil my duties then I should be getting paid for it. I told my supervisor it is physically impossible for me to make to my position on time (he even agreed that it's impossible, but he said it's “policy”) and that I'd be late to hand off if I came in at the scheduled time.

Seems like a win for the company I work for but literally makes the only prep time I have during the day unpaid. While I’m on the clock: I can not sit down, have my phone nor smart watch(duh) or do anything that isn’t constant work (redirecting temper tantrum, making plates and serving food(18 plates and 18 cups of milk/water- 4 times a day..at least for scheduled meals and snacks, teaching curriculum or whatever activity is on the schedule/ all planned…
