Of course he doesn't. You only worked one hour. How could you earn the wage of two hours? It's like trying to pay for a $50 pair of shoes when you only have $25.
There is one instance that I can think of that this could happen. I assume it would depend on the state involved. If an hourly person is scheduled to work at a certain time and shows up at that time ready to work and is worked for an hour but then told to go home the company could be on the hook to pay for the other hour.
I used to work at a job that I was scheduled at, I showed up on-time and was ready to work but it would have blown their labor to have me work a full shift so they told me to just go home. I did however make sure they were going to pay me the two hours they owed me.
However if an employee asks to go home before hitting the two hour period I would assume the employer would be off the hook for paying for more time than was worked. Again more than likely depends on the state you work in and perhaps even the profession you are in.

No limit on hours, just overtime on hours over 40 in one work week. If you do not have a contract with your employer limiting the hours, you can be forced to work the hours.

If you work eighty hours in one week is it double time in Nevada over 80 hours in one work week?
There is no legal requirement for double time pay under Nevada State Law. Employers are only required to pay time-and-a-half for any hours worked over 8 in one day, or over 40 worked in one week. One exception to this is if you and your employer agree to four 10-hour days, then you would not be entitled to the daily OT legal requirement. They can work you as many hours as agreed upon, as long as you are paid OT according to these rules. These obviously don't apply to salaried individuals that meet the State's definition for exemption from OT pay.
Employer breaks up overtime pay by giving extra hours of regular pay and preimum pay then same amount of extra hours with half my pay rate but then counts half time pay as hours worked?
No. An employer can not pay an employee half time unless the following requirements are met: 1. the employee's hours must fluctuate from week to week;2. the employee must be salaried and be paid the same each week regardless of the number of hours that the employee works during the week;3. the fixed amount must be sufficient to provide compensation at a regular rate not less than the legal minimum wage.4. the employer and the employee must have a clear, mutual understanding that the employer will pay the employee the fixed weekly salary regardless of the hours worked; and5. the employee must receive a fifty percent overtime premium in addition to the fixed weekly salary for all hours that the employee works in excess of forty during that week. If the employers often do not follow all of the requirements of this method and their employees are still owed time and one-half for all hours worked over 40 hours.
If you lie on a job application and they find out and you are fired do they have to pay you for the hours you worked?
This is a tricky question because the answer depends one where you were working. If you were in the US, and more so within the State of California, then YES, you are to be Compensated for time Worked regardless the reason(s) for your Termination. If your previous employer is withholding your Pay because of a Falsehood on your application, your best bet is to contact the Agency responsible for governing Labor for the State you were employed in. Only a Representative Familiar with your States Labor Codes can tell you for sure if your Previous Employer has the right to withhold compensation or not. Hope this helps.
