In Russia, the law of June 1, 1882, banned to work children under 12 years old, and for children 12-15 years limited the work time by 8 hours a day (though not more than 4 hours without a break). It also prohibited night ( from 9 pm to 5 am) and Sunday work, as well as prohibited the use of children's labour in harmful industries. Business owners were required to "allow" children who did not have a certificate of completion of at least a class of public school or similar educational institution to attend school for at least 3 hours a day or 18 hours a week.
