Under amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act employees not
covered by reason of their personal engagement in interstate commerce
activities, as explained in Sec. 784.18, are nevertheless brought within
the coverage of the Act if they are employed in an enterprise which is
defined in section 3(s) of the Act as an enterprise engaged in commerce
or in the production of goods for commerce. Such employees, if not
exempt from minimum wages and overtime pay under section 13(a)(5) or
exempt from overtime pay under section 13(b)(4), will have to be paid in
accordance with the monetary standards of the Act unless expressly
exempt under some other provision. This would generally be true of
employees employed in enterprises and by establishments engaged in the
procurement, processing, marketing, or distribution of seafood and other
aquatic products, where the enterprise has an annual gross sales volume
of not less than $250,000. Enterprise coverage is more fully discussed
in part 776 of this chapter, dealing with general coverage.
