House Votes to Increase Flexibility of Wage-Hour Rules
Washington April 8 The House approved a 74 to 10 to 3B vote to loosen the wage hour master hours provision for regularly employed workers. The change allows overtime pay not to apply if a worker averages 42 hours per week over 26 weeks, with a potential 60 hour peak during weeks. The measure preserves a 30 cent minimum wage for salary and wage editors while maintaining time and a half beyond the 42 hour week. Administration allies backed no amendments this year. An attempt to exempt farm workers and farm cooperatives failed.
