Labor Education in Senior High School Act

An Act Integrating Labor Education in the Senior High School Curriculum

In plain language

The bill requires every senior high school—public or private—to add labor‑education topics to a core subject, to review the curriculum for labor‑education content, to hold a labor‑empowerment and career‑guidance conference for all graduating students, and directs the Department of Education to issue detailed rules within 60 days after the law takes effect.
