Legislative Thinking on the Protection of Part-time Labor Rights and Interests of College Students in China

It has become common phenomenon that more and more college students have part time jobs in China. How- ever, the rights of this particular group have often been overlooked, this is because part timing is neither under the direct administration of the college nor is it in the teaching syllabus. It has also yet to be officially included in related labor laws, this has resulted in the violation of rights and the difficulty in protecting ones right. This paper compares Chinese and foreign legislation and analyzes the deficiencies in existing Chinese domestic laws and regulations and point out that the key to guaranteeing the rights and interests of part-time labor of college stu- dents is to solve the question of whether college students have the qualifications of workers in the legal sense. For the socially disadvantaged group of part-time college students, they should be given legislative qualifications in legislation and incorporated into the scope of labor law adjustment to protect their part-time labor rights.
