CFR /  Title 29  /  Part 780  /  Sec. 780.712 Limitation of exemption to establishments with five

If the operations of an establishment are such that it is commonly recognized as a country elevator, its employees may come within the section 13(b)(14) exemption provided that ``no more than five employees are employed in the establishment in such operations''. The exemption is intended, as explained by its sponsor, to ``affect only institutions that have five employees or less'' (107 Cong. Rec. (daily ed.) p. 5883). Since the Act is applied on a workweek basis, a country elevator is not an exempt place of work in any workweek in which more than five employees are employed in its operations.
