SUMMARY: This document extends the period for submitting written 
comments on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) entitled 
``Expanding Employment, Training, and Apprenticeship Opportunities for 
16- and 17-Year-Olds in Health Care Occupations Under the Fair Labor 
Standards Act.'' The comment period now ends on December 11, 2018. The 
Department of Labor (Department) is taking this action to provide 
interested parties additional time to submit comments in response to a 
request for extension, as some supporting documents for the proposal 
may not have been originally fully visible in the docket.

DATES: The comment period for the proposed rule published September 27, 
2018, at 83 FR 48737, is extended. Comments should be received on or 
before December 11, 2018.

ADDRESSES: To facilitate the receipt and processing of written comments 
on this NPRM, the Department encourages interested persons to submit 
their comments electronically. You may submit comments, identified by 
Regulatory Information Number (RIN) 1235-AA22, by either of the 
following methods:

comments on the Federal eRulemaking Portal http://www.regulations.gov.

closes will not be considered. Commenters should transmit comments 
early to ensure timely receipt prior to the close of the comment 
period. Electronic submission via http://www.regulations.gov enables

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    On September 27, 2018, the Department published an NPRM and request 
for comments in the Federal Register (83 FR 48737), proposing to revise 
Hazardous Order Number 7 under the FLSA to allow for 16- or 17-year-
olds to operate power-driven patient lifts. The NPRM also requested 
public comments on the NPRM on or before November 26, 2018. Not all 
supporting documents in the public docket may have been originally 
fully visible. That issue has now been addressed, however, and the 
documents are fully publicly viewable. In light of the above, and out 
of an abundance of caution, the Department has extended the period for 
submitting public comment to December 11, 2018.
