Source: 21 FR 5439, July 20, 1956, unless otherwise noted.
This subpart, which was adopted before the amendments of 1961 and
1966 to the Fair Labor Standards Act, is limited to discussion of the
traditional general coverage of employees employed in activities of the
character performed in the construction industry, which depends on
whether such employees are, individually, ``engaged in commerce or in
the production of goods for commerce'' within the meaning of the Act.
The 1961 and 1966 amendments broadened coverage by extending it to other
employees of the construction industry on an ``enterprise'' basis, as
explained in Sec. 776.22a. Employees covered under the principles
discussed in this subpart remain covered under the Act as amended;
however, an employee who would not be individually covered under the
principles discussed in this subpart may now be subject to the Act if he
is employed in an enterprise engaged in covered construction as defined
in the amendments.
