Short Statement:
The Department proposes to amend 29 CFR part 552 with respect to the records kept for live-in domestic employees. Under the proposal, employers will be required to keep a record of the actual hours worked. Proposed 552.110(b) will no longer permit an employer to maintain a copy of an agreement as a substitute for keeping records of hours worked by the live-in domestic employee. In addition, the Department's proposed amendments results in fewer employees being exempt from the minimum wage and overtime pay requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act. As a result, the number of employees for whom an employer must maintain records of hours worked will increase under the proposed rule.
