The Honour Badge of Labour ((オランダ語:Ereteken van de Arbeid), (フランス語:Insigne d'Honneur du Travail)) is a Belgian award aiming at rewarding especially meritorious workers for their skills and commitment to their profession. It is awarded by Royal Decree on a proposal from the Royal Institute of the Elites of Labour (''Koninklijk Instituut der Eliten van de Arbeid'' in Dutch, ''Institut Royal des Elites du Travail'' in French). The award was officially created in 1948 on the basis of earlier badges awarded to meritorious workers during labour fairs as early as 1847. ==Classes== The Honour Badge of Labour is issued in five classes: * The title of ''Honour Dean of Labour'', awarded by their peers to a limited number of exceptionally noteworthy individuals between forty-five and sixty-five, practicing their profession for at least twenty years, and embodying the values, traditions and moral and social prestige of their profession. The Honour Deans of Labour are the representatives of their profession for a period of five years after they are awarded the title. * The ''Gold Honour Badge of Labour'', awarded to workers having been awarded the Silver Badge at least five years earlier, having a recognized professional competence, and actively involved in the social and professional development of their profession, such as leading training programmes or trade unions. * The ''Silver Honour Badge of Labour'', awarded to workers having been awarded the Bronze Badge at least five years earlier, having proven their willingness to broaden their professional qualifications and to anticipate the evolutions of their profession, and contributing to well-being in the workplace. * The ''Bronze Honour Badge of Labour'', awarded to workers older than thirty having proven their skills in the daily performance of their profession during more than ten or fifteen years (depending on the profession) and having demonstrated a commitment to professional and personal development. * The ''Star of Cadet of Labour'', awarded to workers younger than thirty having worked for at least three years and showing early signs of dedication to their profession. The award of the Honour Badge of Labour also grants the awardee the title of ''Laureate of Labour'' (''Laureaat van de Arbeid'' in Dutch, ''Lauréat du Travail'' in French). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Honour Badge of Labour」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
