 11 employed if (i) such compensation is paid for work for a single employer
 12 pursuant to an agreement between the employee (or labor organization

 15 standard number of hours of such work for a specified period of time and
 16 such agreement specifies that such standard number of hours for a speci-
 17 fied time is not less than forty hours for a seven day period, or, if
 18 the employee (including any crewmember or flight crewmember or rail
 19 operating craft employee) and employer referred to in subparagraph (i)
 20 of this paragraph are both covered by the Railway Labor Act, such work
