McComb, administrator of the Wage and Hour and Public Contracts Divisions of the Labor Department, announced the publication of a revised interpretative bul letin on compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The new bulletin deals primarily with a section of the Fair Labor Standards Act, also known as the Wage and Hour Law, which permits and governs the payment of wages in other than cash. The term “wages” includes the “reasonable cost,” as determined by the administrator, to the employer of furnishing an employe with “board, lodg ing, or other facilities” when such items are customarily furnished. “It appears to have been the clear intention of Congress to protect the basic minimum wage and overtime compen sation required to be paid to the employe . . . from profi teering or manipulation by the employer,” McComb said, regarding the safeguards which control the payment of wages in other than cash. He emphasized, however that nothing prohibits the payment of wages in “facilities” fur nished either as additions to a stipulated wage or as items for which deductions from a stipulated wage may be made. According to the bulletin, no limits are set on the amount which may be deducted for “board, lodging, or other fa cilities,” either in nonovertime weeks or in overtime* weeks, in which the employe works at time and one-half his regu lar rate for each hour beyond 40—provided, these deduc tions represent no more than the reasonable cost of these facilities. “Reasonable cost,” states the administrator, “does not include a profit to the employer or to any person affiliated with him.” In addition, the bulletin sets forth the principles limiting the amounts which may be deducted in both overtime and non-overtime weeks if “facilities” are furnished at a profit, and the rules governing deductions for articles which do not qualify as “facilities,” as, for example, tools, miner’s lamps and dynamite caps. pmoni 6129 %nd£endjeai&e4^dn€i ♦ After you have read The Journal paw it on to your neighbor. better health, because Its high content of magnesium and cal* ctum remlnerallxes the body for vital energy.
