    Description: Section 14(b)(3) of the Fair Labor Standards Act 
(FLSA) authorizes the Secretary of Labor to provide certificates 
authorizing the employment of full-time students at sub-minimum wages 
in institutions of higher education to the extent necessary in order to 
prevent curtailment of opportunities for employment. The WH-201 
application form provides the information necessary to ascertain 
whether the requirements of section 14(b) have been met. If this 
information were not collected, it would be difficult to ensure that 
use of a certificate has not curtailed full-time employment 
opportunities for other workers.

Departmental Clearance Officer.
