Based on your answer, you are not engaged in the production of goods for interstate commerce or in a job which is closely related and directly essential to the production of goods for interstate commerce. Therefore, you are not covered on this basis by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
However, there are several other ways to be covered by the FLSA. You may be covered during workweeks in which you are engaged in interstate commerce, meet the definition of a domestic employee, or work on a covered construction job. Young workers may also be covered by the child labor provisions of the FLSA when they work in or about covered production establishments. You should also be aware that, in certain instances, we find that employees are jointly employed by more than one employer.
For more information, please contact your local Wage and Hour District Office.
