A list of prohibited jobs for teenagers has been adjusted in Belarus

Belarus has adjusted the list of jobs prohibited for teenagers. One of the key changes is the lifting of the ban on working as a tractor driver in agriculture. A driver's license for a tractor or self-propelled equipment can be obtained at the age of 17. In practice, graduates of vocational schools were unable to work until they reached adulthood. Now they can begin working in their profession earlier. Changes have also affected a number of other professions. For bookbinders, binders, and agricultural machinery repairmen the minimum category at which minors are prohibited from working has been raised from second to third.
