The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, record keeping, and child labor standards affecting full-time and part-time workers in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments.

The FLSA's child labor provisions are designed to protect the educational opportunities of minors and prohibit their employment in jobs and under conditions detrimental to their health or well-being.

Non-Agricultural Employment

Minimum Age for Employment:

The minimum age for employment is 14 years old. There are some exceptions such as newspaper delivery; performing in radio, television, movie, or theatrical productions; and work for parents in their solely-owned nonfarm business (except in manufacturing or in hazardous jobs).

Hours of Employment:

* 14- and 15-year-olds may be employed outside of school hours for a maximum of 3 hours per day and 18 hours per week when school is in session and a maximum of 8 hours per day and 40 hours per week when school is not in session. This age group is prohibited from working before 7 a.m. and after 7 p.m., except during summers when they may work until 9 p.m. (from June 1 through Labor Day).

* 16- and 17-year olds may be employed for unlimited hours. There are no federal laws restricting the number of hours of work per day or per week.

Agricultural Employment

Minimum Age for Employment:

* 10- and 11-year-olds may perform jobs on farms owned or operated by parent(s), or with a parent's written consent, outside of school hours in nonhazardous jobs on farms not covered by minimum wage requirements.

* 12- and 13-year-olds may work outside of school hours in non-hazardous jobs, either with a parent's written consent or on the same farm as the parent(s).

* 14- and 15-year-olds may perform any non-hazardous farm job outside of school hours.

* 16-year-olds and older may perform any job, whether hazardous or not, for unlimited hours.

Hours of Employment:

Youth under the age of 16 are restricted from employment during school hours.

Hazardous Employment:

Youth under the age of 16 are prohibited from certain occupations and activities which the U.S. Secretary of Labor has determined to be hazardous. Contact the U.S. Department of Labor for more information.

Family Farms:

The above restrictions do not apply to youth who are employed by their parents on a farm owned or operated by their parents.

Wages

The federal minimum wage is $5.15 per hour. Overtime pay at a rate of not less than one and one-half times their regular rates of pay is required after 40 hours of work in a workweek (except in some agricultural employment).

Youth Minimum Wage: A minimum wage of not less than $4.25 an hour is permitted for employees under 20 years of age during their first 90 consecutive calendar days of employment with an employer. Employers are prohibited from taking any action to displace employees in order to hire employees at the youth minimum wage. Also prohibited are partial displacements such as reducing employees' hours, wages, or employment benefits.

Subminimum Wage Provisions: The FLSA provides for the employment of certain individuals at wage rates below the statutory minimum. Such individuals include student-learners (vocational education students). Such employment is permitted only under certificates issued by the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division.

Federal and State Child Labor Laws

Most states have child labor laws. A few states solely rely on the federal laws found in the FLSA. State child labor laws may be more restrictive or less restrictive than the federal child labor laws (FLSA). In other words, states may have different minimum ages for employment, different hours of work restrictions, and additional occupations identified as hazardous.

If the employment falls under FLSA jurisdiction, then both federal and state laws apply--and the most restrictive law (whether it is the state or the federal) is followed.

The driving distance between Reno, NV and Portland, OR is approximately 530 miles. The driving time would be approximately 10 hours if you were to travel non-stop in good driving conditions. (The driving time does not take into consideration conditions which may extend trip time such as weather, road work and rush hour traffic in urban areas.)

It is 735.87 miles from Phoenix to Reno. It would take 12 hours and 2 minutes to travel that distance. But that would be without making any stops.

I hope I could help!!!!

Reno is a city in west central Nevada, about 10 miles from the California-Nevada border.

The driving distance is about 245-275 miles. Since there is sometimes more than one route, including back roads, this is an approximate but accurate distance. It is based on the most well-known routes between these two locations.

About 440 miles driving distance.

The Northern and Western.

its Carson City because it is actually westerner than San Diego

The simple answer is NO. The Rockies do not encompass any portion of Nevada. The Major Range is the Sierra Nevada's that are more closely linked to the Siskiyous and they in turn are linked to the cascades. The closet area that the Rockies could be linked to is in the eastern most portion of the state through the great basin area but here again they are not linked.

From out at sea Spanish sailors gazed upon the beautiful mountain ranges of California. They called these mountains Sierra Nevada (snowy range). Sierra Nevada seemed an apt name for the new territory that was being carved out of Utah, but when the deed was done in 1859, the name of this new territory had been shortened to Nevada. As far back as 1857 many names were used to refer to the area that became Nevada, IE: Sierra Nevada Territory; Washoe Territory; Carson Territory; Eastern Slope; Humboldt; Esmeralda; Sierra Plata; Oro Plata and Bullion. But in 1864 the land emerged as "Nevada" a Spanish word meaning snow-covered.

16th Street Mall is closed to traffic and is a walking mall. It is fun to walk, browse, and eat there, if you are downtown. There are some typical sites here... a zoo, an aquarium, and two amusement parks. Those are always fun to do with the family. There is a railroad museum that is cool. Casa Bonita is just north of Denver but is popular with tourists... they have gift shops and cliff divers inside the restaurant. Downtown is the Brown Palace Hotel. The restaurant there is also popular with tourists (food is better, less entertainment, very much more expense). The convention center usually has interesting stuff going on... car shows, conventions of all sorts. The Denver Mint is cool. The Molly Brown house is interesting (Molly Brown was a survivor of the Titanic). The Denver Center Theatre downtown puts on all sorts of shows, from Broadway hits that are coming through town to original shows. Excellent stuff. Red Rocks ampitheater is a good place to see a concert... open air natural concert setting near Denver.

The approximate driving time and mileage information -

Between: San Francisco, CA

and: Reno, NV

Driving miles: 220

Driving time: 3 hrs 30 mins

- is based on traveling non-stop in good driving conditions. Driving time does not take into consideration conditions which may extend travel time such as weather, road work, border crossings, and rush hour traffic in urban areas. Mileage denotes actual road miles covered as opposed to Point A to Point B linear distances on a map.

The geographic distance from Oakland to Reno is 178 miles. The drive from Oakland to Reno is 213 miles, but can be quite a pain if there's traffic. If you instead head through Antioch and up I-5, it can often be quicker, but it's also 20 miles longer.

Yes, both Reno and Carson City are west of San Diego. I am from both Reno and San Diego. When you live in either city you think they are in the same location on the map because when you drive up and down highway 395 it feels like you are driving straight south or north when in reality you are heading south and east or north and west.
