Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 55 / Wednesday, March 21, 2018 / Notices
published in Appendix A, and now
found at https://www.gsa.gov/perdiem.
The CONUS minimum meals
component remains $51.00 per day for
2018.3 Workers who qualify for travel
reimbursement are entitled to
reimbursement for meals up to the
CONUS meal rate when they provide
receipts. In determining the appropriate
amount of reimbursement for meals for
less than a full day, the employer may
limit the meal expense reimbursement,
with receipts, to 75 percent of the
maximum reimbursement for meals, or
$38.25, based on the GSA per diem
schedule. If a worker does not provide
receipts, the employer is not obligated
to reimburse above the minimum stated
at § 655.173, as specified above.
If transportation and lodging are not
provided by the employer, the amount
an employer must pay for transportation
and, where required, lodging, must be
no less than (and is not required to be
more than) the most economical and
reasonable costs. The employer is
responsible for those costs necessary for
the worker to travel to the worksite if
the worker completes 50 percent of the
work contract period, but is not
responsible for unauthorized detours.
The employer also is responsible for the
costs of return transportation and
subsistence, including lodging costs
where necessary, as described above.
This policy applies equally to instances
where the worker is traveling within the
U.S. to the employer’s worksite.
For further information on when the
employer is responsible for lodging
costs, please see the Department’s H–2A
Frequently Asked Questions on Travel
and Daily Subsistence, which may be
found on the OFLC website: https://
