SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
information collection pertains to the
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29
U.S.C. 201, et seq., special employment
provisions. These provisions relate to
restrictions on industrial homework and
to the use of special certificates that
allow for the employment of categories
of workers who may be paid less than
the statutory minimum wage to the
extent necessary to prevent curtailment
of their employment opportunities. The
DOL, in order to better manage its
information collections, proposes to
merge a number of related information
collections cleared under various OMB
Control Numbers into a single
collection. Control Number 1235–0001
will be the survivor.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
currently approved by the OMB under
the PRA and displays a currently valid
OMB Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a currently valid OMB control
number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and
1320.6. The DOL currently has obtained
OMB approval for these information
collections under OMB Control
Numbers 1235–0001, 1235–0019, 1235–
0020, and 1235–0022. The current OMB
approval for one Control Number
affected by this request, 1235–0020, is
scheduled to expire on January 31,
2011; however, it should be noted that
information collections submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
