Exemptions Applicable to Agriculture, Processing of Agricultural Commodities, and Related Subjects Under the Fair Labor Standards Act

 

 

 

Subpart D  

Employment in Agriculture That Is Exempted From the Minimum Wage and Overtime Pay Requirements Under Section 13(a)(6)


29 CFR 780.323 - Exemption for range production of livestock.

  • Section Number: 780.323
  • Section Name: Exemption for range production of livestock.

    Section 13(a)(6)(E) which was added to the Act by the Fair Labor 
Standards Amendments of 1966 provides an exemption from the minimum wage 
and overtime requirements of the Act for any employee ``employed in 
agriculture'' if he is ``principally engaged in the range production of 
livestock.'' It is apparent from the language of section 13(a)(6)(E) 
that the application of this exemption depends on the type of work 
performed by the individual employee for whom exemption is sought and on 
where the work is done. A determination of whether an employee is exempt 
therefore requires an examination of that employee's duties and where 
they are performed. Some employees of the employer may be exempt while 
others may not.
