29 CFR 779.108 - Goods produced for commerce.

  • Section Number: 779.108
  • Section Name: Goods produced for commerce.

    Goods are ``produced for commerce'' if they are ``produced, 
manufactured, mined, handled or in any other manner worked on'' in any 
State for sale, trade, transportation, transmission, shipment or 
delivery, to any place outside thereof. Goods are produced for commerce 
where the producer intends, hopes, expects, or has reason to believe 
that the goods or any unsegregated part of them will move (in the same 
or in an altered form or as a part or ingredient of other goods) in 
interstate or foreign commerce. If such movement of the goods in 
commerce can reasonably be anticipated by the producer when the goods 
are produced, it makes no difference whether he himself or the person to 
whom the goods are transferred puts the goods in interstate or foreign 
commerce. The fact that goods do move in interstate or foreign commerce 
is strong evidence that the producer intended, hoped, expected, or had 
reason to believe that they would so move. Goods produced to serve the 
movement of interstate commerce within the same State are also produced 
for commerce within the meaning of the Act, as explained in part 776 of 
this chapter.
