Instructions: Prepare three copies of this form and forward the original to the address shown above. The duplicate is to be kept by the employer and the
other copy given to the homeworker applicant. All questions must be answered in full. The homeworker applicant is to furnish information for Section I. The
employer furnishes information for Section II. The signature of each is required on the application. Section III, Report of Medical Examination, should be
completed by a licensed physician.
Public Use Statement: Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) section 11 (d), 29 U.S.C. § 211(d) authorizes this report. Completion of Form WH-2 is necessary
to obtain certificates to employ individual homeworkers in one of the restricted homework industries noted in item I, below. Completion of the form is voluntary; however, failure to provide the information will result in non-issuance of a homeworker certificate and such employment in a restricted industry will be in
violation of the FLSA. (See 29 C.F.R. part 530). This is an application form only and not a certificate. The Department of Labor uses the information provided
to determine whether terms and conditions necessary to issue an individual certificate have been met.
