Does an airline baggage-handler only get paid for the “specific minutes” when he is lifting luggage?

What's actually tragic is similar things like this do happen in the air industry

Flight attendants for example are often paid only for hours on the plane. All the time getting to the planes through security screenings doesn't count. All the work they do at the gate before and after doesn't count. It's only hours in the plane.
