Several Ag Help Wanted updates were recently posted to the website companion for “Ag Help Wanted: Guidelines for Managing Agricultural Labor” and are available for download at: aghelpwanted.org/updates.

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards affecting employees in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments. The Wage and Hour Division (WHD) of the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) administers and enforces the FLSA with respect to private employment, state and local government employment, and federal employees.
