collection requirements on respondents
can be properly assessed. Currently, the

Standards Act. A copy of the proposed
information request can be obtained by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Wage and Hour Division of the
Department of Labor administers the
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29
U.S.C. 201, et seq.,which sets the
Federal minimum wage, overtime pay,
recordkeeping, and youth employment
standards of most general application.
See 29 U.S.C. 206; 207; 211; 212. FLSA
requirements apply to employers of
employees engaged in interstate
commerce or in the production of goods
for interstate commerce and of
employees in certain enterprises,
including employees of a public agency;
however, the FLSA contains exemptions
that apply to employees in certain types
of employment. See 29 U.S.C. 213, et al.
FLSA section 11(c) requires all
employers covered by the FLSA to
make, keep, and preserve records of
employees and of wages, hours, and
other conditions and practices of
employment. See 29 U.S.C. 211(c). A
FLSA covered employer must maintain
the records for such period of time and
make such reports as prescribed by
regulations issued by the Secretary of
Labor. Id.
The DOL has promulgated regulations
29 CFR part 516 to establish the basic
FLSA recordkeeping requirements. The
DOL has also issued specific sections of

E:\FR\FM\23APN1.SGM

23APN1

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 78 / Tuesday, April 23, 2019 / Notices
regulations 29 CFR parts 10, 505, 519,
520, 525, 530, 547, 548, 549, 551, 552,
553, 570, 575, and 794 to supplement
the part 516 requirements and to
provide for the creation and
maintenance of records relating to
various FLSA exemptions and special
provisions.
The Wage and Hour Division (WHD)
uses this information to determine
whether covered employers have
complied with various FLSA
requirements. Employers use the
records to document FLSA compliance,
including showing qualification for
various FLSA exemptions.
The WHD seeks approval to extend
this information collection related to
various FLSA recordkeeping
requirements.

practical utility;

clarity of the information to be
collected;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,

methodology and assumptions used;
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
