Subpart F  

Employment or Agricultural Employees in Processing Shade- Grown Tobacco; Exemption From Minimum Wage and Overtime Pay Requirements Under Section 13(a)(14)

29 CFR 780.510 - ``Any agricultural employee.''

  • Section Number: 780.510
  • Section Name: ``Any agricultural employee.'' 
    The section 13(a)(14) exemption applies to ``any agricultural 
employee'' who is employed in the specified activities. The term ``any 
agricultural employee'' includes not only agricultural employees of the 
tobacco grower but also such employees of other farmers or independent 
contractors. ``Any agricultural employee'' employed in the growing and 
harvesting of shade-grown tobacco will qualify for exemption if he 
engages in the specified processing operations. The use of the word 
``agricultural'' before ``employee'' makes it apparent that separate 
consideration must be given to whether an employee is an ``agricultural 
employee'' and to whether he is employed in the specified ``growing and 
harvesting'' within the meaning of the Act.
