Examines proposals in the 108th Congress to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 1938 to allow private sector employers to offer employees compensatory time off in lieu of cash wages for overtime hours worked. Discusses regulating hours of work, including origins of the regulatory impulse and a changing workforce psychology, and issues in the debate, including flexibility under FLSA, worker eligibility and participation, bureaucracy and paperwork, and the economics of deferred income
