Publication year 2014 Abstract The Dutch occupational safety and health legislation started in 1874 with the first law against child labor, which forbid children until the age of 12 to work in factories. Followed in 1889 by the first Labor Act (Arbeidswet) and in 1895 by the first ‘Safety Act’ (Veiligheidswet). These acts were adapted several times, and in the last decennia of the 20th century they were replaced by the first Working Conditions Act (1980) and the First Labor Time Act (1996). In 1994 the Working Conditions Act was changed in order to comply to European legislation. The latest major changes in the Working Conditions Act date from 2007.
