Summary "The Theory and Policy of Labour Protection" by Dr. A. Schäffle is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the concept and implementation of labour protection measures within the socio-economic context of the time, focusing on the differences between socialist policies and a positive social policy that builds on existing structures. The primary aim is to analyze and propose legislation regarding the rights and protections of wage-labourers against exploitation, particularly in the context of increasing industrialization. The opening of the book outlines the author's intention to refine the definitions and scope of labour protection, which he argues is essential for understanding and improving the conditions faced by wage-labourers. It begins with reflections on the importance of labour protection amidst evolving social policies, particularly citing the Berlin Labour Conference and various legislative proposals. Schäffle proposes a detailed study of terms, classifications, and existing protective measures, ultimately advocating for a legal working day tailored to the needs of different sectors. His arguments reflect a carefully considered approach to ensuring fair treatment and safety for workers, while distinguishing between general welfare measures and specific labour protections.
