I work in a plant and they plan to shut down for a week and are forcing us to use vacation to cover that week. If I willing to work but they do not have any work for me, can they force you to take vacation? What about a situation where you don’t have enough vacation to cover the week? I work in Virginia and I feel like I found a law about this situation on the Depart of Labor website once, but can’t find it again. Thank you very much for your help!

I am paid an hourly rate. Recently all the employees were required to attend a mandatory staff meeting. We clocked in, the meeting lasted an hour, and we clocked out. I have been under the impression that if you are required to attend a meeting that lasts less than 3 hours, the employer is required to pay for the remainder of in time, up to 3 hours.   Is this true?
