Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Constitutional Amendments: Relating to Labor Legislation and Brief in Their Defense Note. - This is a revision of the workmen´s compensation amendment now forming the principal part of Sec 19, Art. 1, of the Constitution. The revision omits unnecessary details contained in the original compensation amendment and inserts language intended to authorize the legislature to provide, by insurance or otherwise, for the employee´s loss of earnings due to occupational diseases, illness, unemployment and the other causes stated, as well as for industrial accidents. Amendment of Sec. 18, Art. 1 The right of action now existing to recover damages for injuries resulting in death shall never be abrogated; and the amount recoverable shall not be subject to any statutory limitation. This section shall not affect legislation providing compensation for injuries or occupational diseases of employees or for death resulting from such injuries or diseases. Note. - The underscored words are added to the present constitutional provision. Their purpose is obvious; they take the place of an involved provision intended to accomplish the same purpose now contained in the compensation amendment. They make no change in substance in the present constitution. Sweat Shops Nothing contained in this constitution shall limit the power of the legislature to enact laws prohibiting, in whole or in part, manufacturing of any kind in structures any portion of which is used for dwelling purposes. Note. - This proposed amendment is intended to give the legislature power to deal with the problem of homework. Special provision is deemed desirable because homeworkers are not necessarily employees, but may be independent contractors. The power herein granted to the legislature may be exercised in the form of regulation or of prohibition. It is deliberately made as broad as possible in order that the legislature may have full power to deal, as circumstances warrant, with this troublesome problem.
