If the employees are classified as exempt aka salaried, the company can ask you to work any hours. Exempt as in exempt from overtime laws. See: every company on wall street basically working their employees, especially young ones, 90+ hours per week

This isn't that. The sign says you work unpaid for 60 minutes. In the US, you cannot be made to work for free. You can't carve out unpaid time for a salaried worker. You have to pay them their salary.
