A Louisiana House committee voted Thursday to repeal a law requiring employers to give child workers lunch breaks and to cut unemployment benefits — part of a push by Republicans to remove constraints on employers and reduce aid for injured and unemployed workers.
The House Labor and Industrial Relations panel advanced the child labor legislation, House Bill 156, along with House Bill 119, which would slash the amount of time for which people can collect unemployment aid. A third bill the committee approved, House Bill 529, would change how workers’ compensation wages are calculated in ways that could reduce benefits received by some injured laborers.
Yikes, add a non compete to this and it’s basically slavery conditions
without workers the smoothies dont get made.
As US citizens, we should praise the Lord for the privilege of giving our time to our employers. I think that workers who accept pay are greedy, and if you do manage to receive pay, after donating it to your landlord, the rest should go to the church. Child rape trials and relocating sex offenders can get quite expensive. Help a local church! /s
Non competes aren’t a thing for the sorts of jobs that utilize child labor.
