Victoria's Child Employment Laws
How child employment laws protect children under 15 years of age? What is known as "light work" for a child? How can the Wage Inspectorate help?
This training session is an opportunity to learn about Victoria's child employment laws on employing a child in a family business and other industries, child safe standards, and where to ask for help.
