Topic of the Thesis: The position of women in the labor market of Zurich around 1900 – The legislation for the protection of female workers in the canton of Zurich
Abstract: The present dissertation project is situated at the intersection of labor law, women’s rights law, and legislative legal history. It examines the Zurich Female Workers’ Protection Act of 1894, a pioneering legislative measure that explicitly regulated the working conditions of female workers and apprentices for the first time. This protective law established fundamental labor and gender protection standards in the areas of health, youth employment, wages, and dismissal protection. At the core of this study lies a comprehensive analysis of the legislation, taking into account its broader historical context. Furthermore, a comparative legal examination is conducted, including an analysis of similar regulations in other European countries.
