National Online Dialogue about Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
The U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), through its ePolicyWorks initiative, is inviting stakeholders to participate in their Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act National Online Dialogue—open until June 21, 2019—to gather and consider perspectives on the present and future of disability employment, including the roles of subminimum wages and competitive integrated employment. The goal of this online dialogue is to capture trends, experiences with transition, and visions for the future from those “on the ground.” Information gleaned from the comments will then be summarized to provide an overview of Section 14(c) at the state and national levels to ODEP.
