This book was released on 1998-11-18 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Massachusetts, a 12-year-old girl delivering newspapers is killed when a car strikes her bicycle. In Los Angeles, a 14-year-old boy repeatedly falls asleep in class, exhausted from his evening job. Although children and adolescents may benefit from working, there may also be negative social effects and sometimes danger in their jobs. Protecting Youth at Work looks at what is known about work done by children and adolescents and the effects of that work on their physical and emotional health and social functioning. The committee recommends specific initiatives for legislators, regulators, researchers, and employers. This book provides historical perspective on working children and adolescents in America and explores the framework of child labor laws that govern that work. The committee presents a wide range of data and analysis on the scope of youth employment, factors that put children and adolescents at risk in the workplace, and the positive and negative effects of employment, including data on educational attainment and lifestyle choices. Protecting Youth at Work also includes discussions of special issues for minority and disadvantaged youth, young workers in agriculture, and children who work in family-owned businesses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Occupational Hazards to Young Workers, Vol. 1: The Explosives-Manufacturing Industries Madam: There is transmitted herewith a report on the occupa tional hazards to young workers of employment in the explosives manufacturing industry. This study is the first of a series made by the Children's Bureau to guide the Chief of the Bureau in deter mining occupations that are particularly hazardous for young work ers and therefore subject to an 18-year minimum age under the child-labor provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. The data in this report formed the factual basis for Hazardous Occupation Order N O. 1, effective July 1, 1939, which declared all occupations in or about plants manufacturing explosives or articles containing explosive components to be particularly hazardous for minors 16 and 17 years of age. A copy of this order appears in The appendix. The report was originally published in mimeographed form on March 15, 1939, when the proposed order was issued. In this printed bulletin the information presented is that which appeared in the original mimeographed report, without the addition of figures that have since become available.

Download or read book Health and Safety Needs of Older Workers written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-03-26 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirroring a worldwide phenomenon in industrialized nations, the U.S. is experiencing a change in its demographic structure known as population aging. Concern about the aging population tends to focus on the adequacy of Medicare and Social Security, retirement of older Americans, and the need to identify policies, programs, and strategies that address the health and safety needs of older workers. Older workers differ from their younger counterparts in a variety of physical, psychological, and social factors. Evaluating the extent, causes, and effects of these factors and improving the research and data systems necessary to address the health and safety needs of older workers may significantly impact both their ability to remain in the workforce and their well being in retirement. Health and Safety Needs of Older Workers provides an image of what is currently known about the health and safety needs of older workers and the research needed to encourage social polices that guarantee older workers a meaningful share of the nation's work opportunities.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Occupational Hazards to Young Workers, Vol. 4: The Logging and Sawmilling Industries The lumber industry is largely interstate in character. Little more than one-fourth of the lumber cut in Washington and Oregon is marketed within those States. The remainder is shipped to other parts of the country or abroad. In N orth Carolina 42 percent, in California 38 percent, in Alabama 63 percent, in Mississippi 69 per cent, and in Louisiana 59 percent of the out reported in statistics of the industry moves in interstate or foreign commerce, the remainder being retained within the State. Similar percentages move across the lines of all the important lumber-producing States. In general, inter state distribution is principally from large mills, and the bulk of the lumber from small mills remains in the State.12 By far the greater proportion of employment is accounted for by the large mills.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Occupational Hazards to Young Workers, Vol. 5: Woodworking Machines Years of promotion of safety principles and practices have resulted in the introduction and use Of guards for many woodworking ma chines. However, because these devices are neither applicable to all types of work nor required on all types of machines, there has been no drastic curtailment of the great number of accidents caused by woodworking machines. Requirements for guarding, fixed by law or regulation, vary greatly from State to State. There has been widespread recognition of the hazards of wood working-machine employments for young workers. This recognition has taken the form of State laws setting a minimum age for employ ment on specified types of machines higher than the minimum age for general employment. But because the coverage of the laws is not uniform and because there is no legislation of this type in many States, substantial numbers of youn workers continue to be em ployed as Operators of or Off - bearers from these extremely hazardous machines.
