Can My Employer Force Me to Be on Call In California? Your employer can't force you to sign up for a shift. However, they can make it a requirement for your continued employment. If you accept a position in an industry where these shifts are the norm, an employer will expect you to do your share of on-call time.

Q: What Are the Labor Laws for On-Call Shifts in California? A: Labor laws for on-call shifts are essentially the same as labor laws for any other type of work, except where explicit differences are laid out by law. Generally, California law treats on-call hours much the same as any other working hours.
The 1-7, 8-14 Rule. If an employee's time falls between 1-7 minutes, it can be rounded down. However, if it's between 8 and 14 minutes, employers must round it up, counting it as a quarter-hour of work.
