(WM) for a period of two years. FMCSA grants WM's request for limited relief from certain driver qualification requirements to allow WM to use the exception for a \"single-employer driver\" when it transfers drivers among affiliates. FMCSA also grants a limited exemption from the requirement for the driver to undergo controlled substances testing when being transferred among affiliates if the driver has participated in a WM random controlled substances testing pool for any WM-affiliated employer for the previous 12 months. Finally, FMCSA grants an exemption to allow WM to conduct a limited, rather than full, Clearinghouse query when transferring drivers among affiliates. FMCSA denies WM's request for broad exemptions from the pre-employment controlled substance testing and Clearinghouse requirements. FMCSA concludes that the exemptions will likely achieve a level of safety equivalent to or greater than the level of safety that would be achieved absent the exemptions.","document_number":"2026-09469","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/05/13/2026-09469/drug-and-alcohol-clearinghouse-requirements-driver-qualification-requirements-waste-management","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-05-13/pdf/2026-09469.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-09469.pdf?1778589911","publication_date":"2026-05-13","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION","name":"Transportation Department","id":492,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/transportation-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/492","parent_id":null,"slug":"transportation-department"},{"raw_name":"Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration","name":"Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration","id":181,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-motor-carrier-safety-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/181","parent_id":492,"slug":"federal-motor-carrier-safety-administration"}],"excerpts":"request for limited relief from certain <span class=\"match\">driver</span> qualification requirements to <span class=\"match\">allow</span> WM to use the <span class=\"match\">exception</span> for a “<span class=\"match\">single-employer</span> <span class=\"match\">driver</span>” <span class=\"match\">when</span> it transfers <span class=\"match\">drivers</span> among affiliates.

In this rulemaking, the Department proposes to clarify how to determine joint employer status under the FLSA in Part 791 of Title 29, where its joint employer regulations were located prior to 2021. Additionally, the Department is also proposing to amend provisions in its regulations implementing the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA) to provide that joint employer status under those laws be determined using the Department's FLSA analysis, as the FMLA and MSPA both incorporate the FLSA's employment definitions. This rulemaking is intended to provide clarity and a measure of uniformity for employers and employees in an area of the law where components of legislative, executive, and judicial branches--at both the federal and state levels--have presented widely varying tests and standards. In addition, the proposed rule offers a nationwide standard for use by the Department's investigators and law enforcement personnel that would not only ensure the evenhanded application of the Act in matters that often cross state and circuit lines but also preserve core consistency with the wide variety of potentially relevant judicial frameworks. The proposed rule intends to marshal the commonality between those approaches closest to the statute as construed by the courts and, in so doing, simplify the Department's enforcement of the law, reduce litigation, and provide a reliable and uniform analysis for workers and employers that ultimately applies and complements the core commonality between the various tests applied by the federal courts.","document_number":"2026-07959","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/23/2026-07959/joint-employer-status-under-the-fair-labor-standards-act-family-and-medical-leave-act-and-migrant","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-04-23/pdf/2026-07959.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-07959.pdf?1776861922","publication_date":"2026-04-23","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF LABOR","name":"Labor Department","id":271,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/labor-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/271","parent_id":null,"slug":"labor-department"},{"raw_name":"Wage and Hour Division","name":"Wage and Hour Division","id":524,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/wage-and-hour-division","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/524","parent_id":271,"slug":"wage-and-hour-division"}],"excerpts":"liable as a <span class=\"match\">single employer</span> under the FLSA without needing to consider joint employment.” \n \n <span class=\"match\">When</span> an employee is allegedly employed by multiple entities that may not truly be separate entities, evaluating whether the entities are one entity and thus a <span class=\"match\">single employer</span> under the FLSA should be considered before applying any joint employment analysis. \n See \n WHD Opinion Letter FLSA2025-5 (Sept. 30, 2005) (explaining that, as an alternative to considering joint employment, “[s]eparately incorporated entities may be considered a <span class=\"match\">single employer</span> . . . for"},{"title":"Recission of Final Rule: Improving Protections for Workers in Temporary Agricultural Employment in the United States","type":"Proposed Rule","abstract":"The Department of Labor (Department or DOL) is proposing to amend its regulations governing the certification of agricultural labor or services to be performed by temporary foreign workers in H-2A nonimmigrant status (H-2A workers) and enforcement of the contractual obligations applicable to employers of such nonimmigrant workers.

Further, the final rule imposed extensive highly-sensitive data collection requirements on employers related to their use of foreign labor recruiters, including personal names and physical addresses abroad, as well as detailed personal information associated with all owners of the employers, operators of the place(s) of employment, and supervisor(s) and manager(s) of workers employed under the terms of the work contract, with very limited or no practical utility to the agency's statutory decision making.
