Hi everyone. I’m a housekeeper at a motel. When I come into work I’m given a checklist of tasks and when I finish them I ask if there’s any more work for me to do. My boss typically schedules me 10-3 but often I’m only given work that keeps me there until 12. I’m in MA and heard from another housekeeper about a law (454 CMR 27.04 1) that if I’m sent home early they need to pay “show up pay” and pay me for three hours regardless. That has never happened. I was speaking with another housekeeper and our boss has been doing that for her. I just wanted advice on how to bring this up to my boss (preferably through text because I don’t like confrontation). My boss is already very passive aggressive to me and I don’t want her to be nasty to me over it but I also think I deserve to be compensated. Would it be normal and legal for me to ask her to reimburse me for what I wasn’t paid in the past? Or should I just say moving forward?
