         CHAPTER V--WAGE AND HOUR DIVISION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
 
PART 783_APPLICATION OF THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT TO EMPLOYEES 
EMPLOYED AS SEAMEN--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 783.19  Commerce activities of enterprises in which employee is 
employed.

    Under amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act effective September 
3, 1961, employees not covered by reason of their personal engagement in 
interstate commerce activites, as explained in Sec. 783.18, are 
nevertheless brought within the coverage of the Act if they are employed 
in an enterprise which is defined in section 3(s) of the Act as an 
enterprise engaged in commerce or in the production of goods for 
commerce, or by an establishment described in section 3(s)(3) of the Act 
(seeSec. 783.11). Such employees, if not exempt from the minimum wage 
and overtime pay requirements under section 13(a)(14) or exempt from the 
overtime pay requirements under section 13(b)(6), will have to be paid 
in accordance with those monetary standards of the Act unless expressly 
exempt under some other provision. This would generally be true of 
employees employed in enterprises and by establishments engaged in a 
business concerned with transportation of goods or persons by vessels, 
where the enterprise has an annual gross sales volume of $1,000,000 or 
more. Enterprise coverage is more fully discussed in part 776 of this 
chapter, dealing with general coverage.
