Description[?]:
| Whilst it is our party's belief that unsafe, exploitative child labor is wrong and should be prosecuted, we believe that those whom are still minors in the eyes of the law should have the ability to seek part time work. A part time job in addition to an educational pursuit will create a more well rounded individual and will teach valuable life skills such as money management, punctuality and responsibility. Minors seeking employment will, in addition to standard labor laws applicable to adults, have the following stipulations: I. No minor under the age of 12 may seek employment II. Minors seeking employment will not be allowed to work for more than: a. (Age 12): 5 hours a week b. (Age 13 to Age of Adulthood): 10 hours a week III. Minors will not be allowed to work for longer than: a. (Age 12): 2 hour shifts b. (Age 13 to Age of Adulthood) 4 hour shifts IV. Minors will not be employed after: a. (Age 12): 8:00 P.M. b. (Age 13 to Age of Adulthood) 10:00 P.M. V. Minors will not be allowed to work during school hours VI. Minors will not be allowed to work with dangerous tools and machines. This includes but is not limited to: Power tools, Dangerous Machinery, Vehicles, Knives VII. Minors will not be allowed to work in a dangerous environment. This includes but is not limited to: Areas where hazardous materials are handled, Areas where sensory damage will occur, Factories VIII. Resonable accomodations for school work shall be provided for minors by employers It is up to the discretion of the employer to hire minors. |
