2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 31-62. Report and regulations.
Sec. 31-62. Report and regulations. (a) A report from a wage board shall be submitted to the commissioner, who shall, within fifteen days, accept or reject such report.
If the report is rejected, the commissioner shall resubmit the matter to the same wage
board or to a new wage board, with a statement of the reasons for the resubmission. If
the report is accepted, it shall be published, together with such administrative regulations
as the commissioner deems appropriate, and notice shall be given of a public hearing
to be held by the commissioner not sooner than fifteen nor more than thirty days after
such publication, at which all persons in favor of or opposed to the recommendations
contained in such report or in such proposed regulation may be heard.
(b) Within fifteen days after such hearing, the commissioner shall approve or disapprove the report of the wage board. If the report is disapproved, the commissioner may
resubmit the matter to the same wage board or to a new wage board. If the report is
approved, the commissioner shall make an order, which shall define minimum fair wage
rates in the occupation or occupations as recommended in the report of the wage board
and which shall include such proposed administrative regulations as the commissioner
deems appropriate. Such administrative regulations may include, among other things,
regulations defining and governing outside salesmen; learners and apprentices, their
rates, number, proportion or length of service; piece rates or their relation to time rates;
overtime or part-time rates; bonuses or special pay for special or extra work; deductions
for board, lodging, apparel or other items or services supplied by the employer; and other
special conditions or circumstances. The commissioner may provide in such regulations,
without departing from the basic minimum rates recommended by the wage board, such
modifications or reductions of or additions to such rates in or for such special cases or
classes of cases as those herein enumerated as the commissioner finds appropriate to
safeguard the basic minimum rates established.
