Answer to Question 1

The FLSA, as amended, provides for three bases of coverage. Employees who are engaged in interstate commerce, including both import and export, are covered. In addition, employees who are engaged in the production of goods for interstate commerce are subject to the FLSA. Finally, all employees employed in an enterprise engaged in interstate commerce are subject to the FLSA, regardless of the relationship of their duties to commerce or the production of goods for commerce.
