    Title: Application for Federal Certificate of Age,

    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit; individuals or 
households; not-for profit institutions; farms; and State, local or

    Frequency: On occasion.
    Number of Respondents: 10.
    Number of Annual Responses: 10.

    Description: Section 3(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) 
provides that an employer may protect against unwitting employment of 
oppressive child labor by obtaining a certificate of age certifying 
that a youth meets the FLSA minimum age requirements. Section 11(c) of 
the FLSA requires that all employers covered by the Act make, keep and 
preserve records of wages, hours and other conditions and practices of 
employment with respect to their employees. Form WH-14 is an 
application for a Federal Certificate of Age. Without the information 
provided with the application, there would be insufficient proof of age 
to issue a certificate.
