A child 14 years or overincidentally it is 16 in industry and 14 in agriculturecan work in an agricultural occupation anywhere unless that occupation is one that has been deemed. after examination by the Secretary of Labor. to be one that is particularly hazardous for the employment of children of immature judgment. I understand the gentleman from Nebraska has an amendment which would more closely define what is "particularly hazardous employment." We will get into that when the gentleman from Nebraska takes time to explain his amendment. The point I want to make is that we are only after the bad situations we all recognize have grown up in connection with the employment in some areas of migrant labor. We are not after the child working on the home farm. we are not after the child working in the neighborhood if he is at least 12 years of age. I think this is a bill we can all vote for.
