The correct answer is A.

The Fair Labor Standards Act was issued in 1938 in the US to regulate wages and working hours. It constituted a mandatory set of rules to be followed by all employers involved in interstate trade or in the production of goods or services, with very limited exemptions. A minimum wage was set, also a maximum work week and extra retributions for those who worked over 40 hours. Minor and child labor were regulated too.
