Fair Labor Standards Act
The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA, ch. 676, 52 Stat. 1060, June 25, 1938, 29 U.S.C. ch.8) is United States federal law that applies to employees engaged in interstate commerce or employed by an enterprise engaged in commerce or in the production of goods for commerce[1], unless the employer can claim an exemption from coverage. The FLSA established a national minimum wage,[2] guaranteed time and a half for overtime in certain jobs,[3] and prohibited most employment of minors in "oppressive child labor," a term defined in the statute.[4]
