Does my employer cheat me by paying me regular hours even when time moves back in my shift. I clocked in at 10 pm, Time was adjusted at 1.00 am back to 12.00 am and I clocked out at 6 am getting 8 hours pay but working 9 hours. Is he required by law to compensate me for the extra hour worked?

Your employer must pay you for all actual hours worked. In the case of daylight savings when the clock is moved back he must pay you that hour that in effect you had to "repeat". Conversely, when the clocks "spring ahead" an hour you are not paid for the one hour that was 'skipped'.

Yes, required by law. Report your employer to your local department of employment - its free and they are required to investigate by law.
