Bill > SB119

This bill amends Alabama's child labor laws to significantly increase the civil and criminal penalties for employers who violate these laws. Specifically, the bill increases the civil penalties that can be imposed on employers, with a minimum penalty of $300 and a maximum penalty of $10,000 per violation. The bill also makes certain violations, such as those involving serious injury or death of a minor, punishable as a Class B felony or Class C felony. Additionally, the bill requires the state's Department of Labor to impose civil penalties in certain cases, rather than having the discretion to do so. The bill aims to enhance enforcement and deter employers from violating child labor protections.
