Legal Question in Employment Law in California
My employer has classified me as a non-exempt, salaried employee (in California). I am paid based on the number of hours I work and receive overtime pay. My question is: If I am sent on a business trip where I depart on a Friday night and return on a Thursday evening, should I be paid for the hours spent on the flight?

No, unless you are required to work during the flight. Employers are not required to pay travel time to and from a worksite.
