Labor/Right to Work South Carolina is a right-to-work state and welcomes both union and non-union productions. The rapid growth of the state’s motion picture-related labor force indicates our serious commitment to the development of a viable film industry.
Child Labor Code Section 41-13-20, South Carolina Code of Laws, 1976 (as amended), provides that the Commissioner of Labor shall promulgate regulations that will prohibit oppressive child labor practices but be no more restrictive or burdensome than applicable federal laws or regulations. It is the purpose of these regulations to resolve any contradictions between state and federal law and to protect the well-being of the children at work in this state. The state of South Carolina adopted the U. S. Child Labor Laws under the Fair Labor Standards Act (WH Publication 1330, revised July 1978). Exemptions from the Child Labor Provisions of the Act include: 71-3105-d. Child Labor Provisions do not apply to children employed as actors or performers in motion pictures, theatrical, radio or television productions.
