What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Subject to certain exceptions, current law prohibits a minor from being

employed or permitted to work at any employment unless the minor's employer

obtains a written permit authorizing the employment of the minor. Such permits are

issued by the Department of Workforce Development or by certain other permit

officers designated by DWD.

This bill allows a minor to be employed without a child labor permit by a family

business, as defined in the bill.
