What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Subject to certain exceptions, current law prohibits a minor who is 14 or 15
years of age 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.
Subject to certain exceptions, current law also prohibits a minor from being
permitted to work at any “street trade” unless 1) the minor's employer obtains a
street trade permit; and 2) the minor obtains an identification card. Street trade
permits must contain certain information but otherwise be in the same format as
child labor permits. Such permits are issued by the Department of Workforce
Development or by certain other permit officers designated by DWD.
This bill eliminates these requirements to obtain permits and other associated
provisions.
