29 CFR 783.2 - Matters discussed in this part.

  • Section Number: 783.2
  • Section Name: Matters discussed in this part.

    This part 783 discusses the meaning and application of the 
exemptions provided in sections 13(a)(14) and 13(b)(6) of the Act. The 
provisions of section 6(b)(2) of the Act, which relate to the 
calculation of minimum wages and the hours worked by seamen on American 
vessels, are also discussed in this part. Other provisions of the Act 
are discussed only to make clear their relevance to these provisions and 
are not considered in detail in this part. Interpretations and 
regulations also published elsewhere in this title deal in some detail 
with such subjects as the general coverage of the Act (part 776 of this 
chapter), methods of payment of wages (part 531 of this chapter), hours 
worked (part 785 of this chapter), recordkeeping requirements (part 516 
of this chapter), and qualifications for exempt executive, 
administrative, and professional employees (part 541 of this chapter). 
Reference should also be made to subpart G of part 570 of this chapter 
which contains the official interpretations of the child labor 
provisions of the Act. Copies of any of these documents may be obtained 
from any office of the Wage and Hour Division.
