Camp Safety Act of 2005
Summary
H.R. 2748, the Camp Safety Act of 2005, proposes to link federal labor exemptions for organized camps to the implementation of specific health and safety standards. Under current law, many seasonal camps are exempt from federal minimum wage requirements; this bill would require those camps to meet national safety benchmarks to maintain that exemption. The Secretary of Labor would be responsible for monitoring compliance, ensuring that camps provide a baseline level of protection for both staff and campers that meets or exceeds existing state laws.
