Summary of the Walsh-Healey Public Contracts Act
The Walsh-Healey Public Contracts Act (PCA) applies to contractors with contracts in excess of $10,000 for the manufacturing or furnishing of materials, supplies, articles, or equipment to the U.S. government or the District of Columbia. The Act covers employees who produce, assemble, handle, or ship goods under these contracts.
The Act does not apply to executive, administrative, and professional employees, or to outside salespersons exempt from the minimum wage and overtime provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Nor does it apply to certain office and custodial workers.
Contracts not covered by this Act include the purchase of: materials, supplies, articles, or equipment as may usually be bought in the open market; perishables; agricultural products from the original producers; public utility services and certain transportation and communication services; supplies manufactured outside the U.S. (including Puerto Rico) or the Virgin Islands.
