Legal Question in Employment Law in Louisiana

I am a non exempt 12 hour rotation shift worker in Louisiana. When I am not scheduled to work, my employer wants me to give my personal cell # and require it be answered. The employer already has my home phone. When I am off, I am supposed to be off until my next scheduled day or night unless I have signed up for overtime. Can I be required to carry and answer MY personal cell phone and be availabe when not scheduled to work?
