The Act makes provision for an 18 year minimum age in occupations found and declared by the Chief of th eChildren’s Bureau to be especially hazardous to young workers under 18 years of age. To date orders have been issued establishing a minimum age of 18 in the manufacture of ex plosives, in the operation of motor ve hicles or as helpers on motor vehicles, and in coal mines (except slate pick ing, repair, maintenance or office work on the surface). The Act permits the employment of children 14 and 16 in other than man ufacturing or moning operations pro vided such employment does not inter fere with school attendance and is carried on in accordance with regula tions of the Children’s Bureau. The child labor provisions do not apply to a young worker employed in agriculture while not legally required to attend school; if he is under 16 and employed by his parents, or persons standing for his parents, in occupa tions other than manufacturing or mining; or if he is employed as an actor in motion pictures or theatrical productions. Employers interested in this phase of the Fair Labor Standards Act who are not familiar with the general pro visions regarding child labor or regu lations of the Children’s Bureau may obtain such information from the Children’s Bureau, U. S. Department if Labor, or from the nearest regional leadquarters of the Wage and Hour Division.
