Dr Jonathan Zeller from UZH analyses Zurich's 1894 women workers' protection law, the first legislation to regulate working conditions for female workers. The lecture examines the historical context, legal provisions and implementation by Switzerland's first female inspector. It compares Zurich's law with other cantonal protection laws.
