Section 25-8-32 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature has found that Alabama law has not kept pace with federal standards regulating the employment of minors to the extent that it has become increasingly difficult for employers to comply with conflicting state and federal child labor requirements.

(2) Remove exemptions for domestic service and the grading or handling, or both, of agricultural products. (3) Add a restriction for occupations which involve working at heights exceeding six feet, as well...
