The FLSA, or Fair Labor Standards Act, was enacted in 1938 as part of the New Deal to establish labor standards in the United States. It set regulations for minimum wage, overtime pay, and child labor, aiming to protect workers' rights and improve working conditions during the Great Depression. The FLSA was a significant step toward ensuring fair treatment and compensation for employees across various industries.
