Creative Enterprises is a CRP or Work Center. See below, Types of Establishments where Certificates may be Used:

Community rehabilitation program (CRP) or work center – A facility that primarily provides vocational rehabilitation services and employment for people with disabilities. A CRP applicant must include information in its application about all locations where it employs or is seeking to employ workers with disabilities and pay them a subminimum wage, for example, physically separate branch locations. Certificates may be issued for a two-year effective period.

Hospital or residential care facility (patient workers) – A facility that primarily provides residential care for individuals with disabilities, including nursing homes, intermediate care facilities, assisted living facilities, halfway houses, and residential substance abuse treatment facilities. Such an employer may hire a worker with a disability who receives inpatient or outpatient treatment or care, often referred to as a “patient worker.” Certificates may be issued for a two-year effective period.

School-work experience program (SWEP) – A school-operated program where students with disabilities may perform work activities as part of an educational employment program. School employers are responsible for compliance with all applicable child labor provisions, wage standards, and certificate and recordkeeping requirements of the FLSA. The school may submit a group application that covers all students with disabilities and all the school locations where students will be working. Certificates may be issued for a one-year effective period.

Business – A for-profit employer other than a CRP, a hospital/residential care facility, or SWEP that employs workers with disabilities at a subminimum wage based on the individual’s productivity for the work performed. Certificates may be issued for a one-year effective period.
