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. Accordingly, numerous changes are necessary to make the
child labor laws of Alabama compatible with the United States Department of Labor regulations
governing the employment of minors in nonagricultural occupations. Similarly, there is also
a need to remove anachronistic language and make clarifications to existing standards. In
view of the foregoing findings, the Legislature through this chapter intends to do all of
the following: (1) Conform with 17 federal hazardous orders. (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...

Section 45-49A-82 Legislative findings; purpose. The Legislature of Alabama finds and declares
that the health, safety, and welfare of the people of the City of Prichard, in Mobile County,
Alabama, are enhanced by the continual encouragement, development, growth, and expansion of
private enterprise within this state. That there are certain economically depressed areas
in such city that need particular attention to create new jobs, stimulate economic activity,
and attract private sector investment rather than government subsidy to improve the quality
of life of their citizens. It is the purpose of this part to encourage new economic activity
in this depressed area by means of reduced taxes and the removal of unnecessary governmental
barriers to the production and earning of wages and profits and the creation of economic growth.
