The U.S. Dept. of Labor last week announced significant new revisions in its Fair Labor Standards Act child labor rules. The new regulations, taking effect on Feb. 15, 2005, make changes to occupations & work activities the DOL deems too hazardous for children.
An overview of "selected state child labor law standards" is available on DOL's website.
DOL also announced a proposal that would implement Wage Determinations Online, "replacing the current manual & paper-intensive processes with an Internet-based system."
