26 ME Rev Stat § 666 (2012 through 125th Legis) What's This?

Subchapter 3: MINIMUM WAGES

§666. Workers with disabilities

For any employment to which the minimum wage is applicable, the director may issue to an employer for any person with a disability a special certificate authorizing the employer to pay that person a wage less than the minimum wage, based on the ability of the person to perform the duties required for that employment in comparison to the ability of a person who does not have a disability to perform the same duties. The director may hold hearings and conduct investigations as necessary for the purpose of fixing the special minimum wage for the person. A certificate is valid for 2 years from the date of issue and may be renewed by the director. The director may issue a certificate to cover several employees with disabilities as long as the employer provides documentation justifying the special minimum wage. [2011, c. 483, §1 (AMD).]
