The FLSA requires the Committee to recommend to the Secretary of Labor the highest minimum wage rate—not to exceed the rate required under FLSA section 6(a)(1)— that it determines, having due regard to economic and competitive conditions, will not substantially curtail employment in the industry and will not give any industry in American Samoa a competitive advantage over any industry in the U.S. outside of American Samoa. The Committee must consider competitive conditions as affected by transportation, living and production costs; the wages established by collective bargaining agreements in various industries; and wages paid by employers who voluntarily maintain minimum wage standards. FLSA section 5(d) requires the Secretary of Labor to provide data on the matters the Committee will consider. Regulations 29 CFR 511.6 and 511.11 require that the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) of the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) prepare for the Committee an economic report containing data pertinent to establishing industry minimum wage rates in American Samoa. The WHD uses Form WH–1, Economic Survey Schedule, to gather the information necessary to prepare the economic report. The WHD asks all FLSA-covered employers in American Samoa to provide data. Respondents covered by the FLSA in American Samoa may voluntarily provide data concerning business operations and employment on the form. This information is essential to enable the Administrator to prepare the economic report and provide the data cited above for the Committee to use in determining minimum wage rates for the various industries in American Samoa.
