Principles for Determination of Hours Worked


29 CFR 785.6 - Definition of ``employ'' and partial definition of ``hours worked''.

  • Section Number: 785.6
  • Section Name: Definition of ``employ'' and partial definition of ``hours worked''.

    By statutory definition the term ``employ'' includes (section 3(g)) 
``to suffer or permit to work.'' The act, however, contains no 
definition of ``work''. Section 3(o) of the Fair Labor Standards Act 
contains a partial definition of ``hours worked'' in the form of a 
limited exception for clothes-changing and wash-up time.
