Hello all! I have added a new section under "Legislative and Administrative History" titled "Section 14(c)". This focuses specifically on this portion of the FLSA and its impact on workers with disabilities. If you have any suggestions or comments, please let me know. Thanks!

The graph of Minimum Wage History displaying Real vs. Nominal Value in the graph has no key making it a bit difficult to read. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leeand00 ( talk • contribs) 13:26, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
The article states:
My hazy recollection is that the FLSA was not amended, so this sentence is incorrect. It should say "... changes to Department of Labor regulations issued under the [authority of the] FLSA ..." if I am correct. 18.26.0.18 04:48, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I find the phrase:
problematic as it seems to imply that most or all computer programmers lack "formal academic credentials"; a significant number do have relevant degrees.-- Sommerfeld 17:44, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
I agree with the comment of Sommerfeld. I have changed the article accordingly. Famspear 17:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Does anyone know if there are any criminal statutes included in the FLSA, i.e. the government can bring criminal actions against companies who grossly violate some provions? There are certainly civil provisions here - my hunch is that that is all that is present. Thanks for any help.

I am currently working at a job where my first pay check was 74hrs. my employer pays me 12.00 and hour regualer pay 18.00 for time and a half.
my first pay check was staight pay with no over time pay. and now they are telling me that i'll will get a check but at 6.00 dollars and hour for th e overtime of 34 hours is this correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.177.69.162 ( talk) 22:03, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
I don't want to offend anyone, so let me ask here first. I have a blog that I update almost daily (although every so often I go out of pocket) that summarizes new published FLSA cases. That's overtimelaw.blogspot.com. I also am trying to create a wiki just for overtime, but it's in its infancy. Would it be OK to link to those sites in external links? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Trtfsr ( talk • contribs) 02:53, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
This page redirects from a search on "Exempt Employee," yet it contains no definition. I suspect that there had been one, but someone edited it out.
There's a paragraph in the "Amendments" section about "FairPay" reclassifying employees but that's it. Katharine908 ( talk) 17:11, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
Katharine is absolutely correct -- Need to Define "Exempt" and "Non-exempt" Employee. Not only that, but define a covered (and uncovered?)
"Exempt" and "Non-exempt" Employee. I am researching the status of salaried workers for a 501(c)(3), and was very disappointed that there is no mention of salaried workers. Logically, this would mean that they are exempt from FLSA, but the US Code is not known for its logical consistency. Better luck next time. —Preceding
unsigned comment added by

talk) 01:45, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
Employees whose jobs are covered by the FLSA are either exempt of non-exempt. Non-exempt workers and entitled to overtime pay whil exempt workers are not entitled to overtime pay. [1]

Current text from Fair Labor Standards Act Amendments:

The decision resolved that a required security screening, while benefiting the employer, was not a covered obligation for reimbursement because the screening could be removed without effecting the productive work the employees were hired for. Philippe23 ( talk) 15:24, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
References
These two sentences from the section on the Equal Pay Act need citations:
"In the past, it had been generally accepted that women did not deserve to earn as much money as men because they were not heads of households. However, in many homes, women were in fact the sole breadwinner for various reasons, ranging from death or disability of a spouse to divorce or single parenthood."
As much as we all know there was discrimination historically, this is still an encyclopedia, and we need fact based citations to support commonly held political views in this context. Added {Citations needed} to each sentence to reflect this.

Hi all! I have removed the original written work under the 2009/2013 Paid Vacation Act section due to a lack of references. I then added in two paragraphs with more information regarding the proposed amendment. I went into more detail about the contents and source of the bill as well as the most recent actions by the House of Representatives. If anything seems amiss, please let me know!
