In compliance with pay transparency requirements, the Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division (WHD) concludes that " active duty Service members who participate in the SkillBridge program would not be covered by the FLSA , the Davis-Bacon Act, the SCA, and the CWHSSA. As emphasized throughout, these aforementioned statutes were not intended to prevent potential businesses like yours from participating in the SkillBridge program by providing on-the-job training opportunities and instruction at a place and in a manner which would most benefit Service members who will soon be leaving the military. To find otherwise would be a disservice to those who serve our country in uniform."
