Wage-hour division adopts weekly compliance basis
Washington where the wage-hour division announced a weekly method to judge employer compliance with the wage hour law. A piece worker earning 12 dollars in 42 hours one week and 14 dollars in 42 hours the next would still require 60 cents extra for the first week to meet the 30 cents per hour minimum, even if total two week earnings exceed the rate. The courts are not bound by this interpretation. The Sun sells typewriter paper.
