On call but only getting paid one hour?

My fiancé just told me that his job (which is usually salary) allowed him “overtime” for this weekend since it’s a tax firm and he does IT support. He has to be on call from 9am to 8pm but will only get paid for one hour of that entire day. If he is on call, doesn’t he have to get paid for the whole day? Am I missing something? What would he have to ask to make sure they are not taking advantage of him?
