Fire Department Licensing Of Movie Theater Projectionists???

3 posts in this topic

Just learned that many movie theaters are using teenage projectionists inspite of licensing requirements from local fire departments. How can this be? The Yonkers City Code (see cityofyonkers.com) states that all projectionists must be licensed by the YFD and board of examiners, yet the projectionist union seems to have lost it's membership ithroughout the county.

Am familiar with this having worked for General Cinema chain back in the mid 1970's. Every theater had union projectionists back then and I believe White Plains and New Rochelle also had the licensing requirement.

Happy Holidays.

Laws prohibiting minors from this position is still on the books in many places.

Well then it looks like the labor laws are being violated openly in this county with no enforcement. May have to take this to the media for follow up.
