Summary:THE PRIMARY AREAS CONSIDERED BY STATE LEGISLATURES IN 1973 INCLUDED HIGHER MINIMUM WAGE RATES AND BROADER COVERAGE OF MINIMUM WAGE LAWS, IMPROVED OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY, COLLECTIVE-BARGAINING PROCEDURES FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYEES, ELIMINATION OF DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT, AND UPDATING OF CHILD LABOR STANDARDS. IN OTHER ACTIONS, ILLINOIS REACTIVATED ITS COMMISSION ON LABOR LAWS, WHOSE RECOMMENDATIONS HAVE ALREADY LED TO SIGNIFICANT LEGISLATION. THE PROTECTION OF RETIREMENT OR PENSION SYSTEMS WAS THE SUBJECT OF LEGISLATION IN CONNECTICUT AND OREGON, INCLUDING THE REQUIRED FILING OF PERIODIC FINANCIAL REPORTS WITH, AND SUPERVISION BY, THE INSURANCE COMMISSIONER. NEW YORK AUTHORIZED ITS RACING COMMISSIONER TO REQUIRE PENSION-PLANS FOR HORSE STABLE EMPLOYEES UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, AND NEW JERSEY AUTHORIZED A STUDY OF PENSION AND RETIREMENT PLANS.
