Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, my party would like to propose to the government and the other political forces the reintroduction of a very old legislation once in force in the country, the "Underage Employement Regulatory Text (UERT)", which set the appropriate safeguards and limitations in defense of minor workers. The approval of this Pdl enacts also the establishment of the "Federal Labour Ispectorate" (FLI), a federal agency that will exercise and coordinate the supervisory function in the federal territory regarding labor, contributions, compulsory insurance and social legislation, including supervision for the protection of the health and safety of workers. The FLI will depends on the Federal Department of Trade and Industry. The text will provide what kind of jobs the underage workers will be allowed to do and in what kind of conditions: - Only minors who are at least 14 years can enter into working world, but when it is cultural, artistic, sports, advertising and entertainment industry working activities, minors of 16 years old can work but only with the written consent of the parents and with the authorization of the National Labour Inspectorate. - Minors can not perform jobs that potentially could arrest the full physical development - Minors can not perform jobs classified as dangerous and high intensive. - Minors can not perform jobs classified as high responsibility. - To minors is prohibited carry out the work at night from 23 to 7 o' clock unless it is a cultural, artistic or sports activity and the work does not exceed midnight, but exceptionally and for the strictly necessary time, they can be used for night work in cases of force majeure which hinder the operation of the company, provided that such work is temporary and does not allow any delay, adult workers are not available and are granted equivalent compensatory rest periods within three weeks. The employer must also give immediate notice to the Federal Labour Ispectorate. - Minors must be guaranteed a rest period of at least two days a week, if possible consecutive and including Sunday. The minimum rest period may be reduced for justified technical and organizational order, but in no case be less than 36 consecutive hours. The rest periods may be interrupted in the case of activities involving periods of split or short duration work in the day. It also foresees the possibility to grant the weekly rest also on different days from Sunday to minors employed in working activities of cultural, artistic, sports or advertising or in the entertainment industry as well, with exclusive reference to adolescents, in tourism, hospitality or catering. - To be able to start to work the teenager has to undergo a medical check before to begin and to regular check during the work period. - Maximum workingtime 8 hours/day for those minors which have finished their school courses gaining a professional degree. - Maximum workingtime 6 hours/day for those with no professional degree. - Maximum workingtime 6 hours/week for those involved in school-work cooperation programs. - The job, if out of schooling programs, shall not interfere with school courses and with the child right to the study, but these minors can follow home schooling at the request of the parents if homeschooling is permitted. - The provisions of the UERT does not apply to teenagers (>14) employees in occasional or short-term jobs concerning domestic service in the family and performance of work not harmful or detrimental or dangerous in family businesses. |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
