Colorado employers must pay employees for any hours worked that involve performing their job duties, including training. However, training may be unpaid if it meets all of these categories: A meeting or seminar is outside of normal working hours Attendance of the seminar or lecture is entirely voluntary The meeting or lecture is not directly related to the job The employee does not perform productive work while attending the lecture, training, seminar, etc. If you’re unsure if your training should be paid or not, contact our experienced employment lawyers to understand your wage rights.
