• Work Permit: Under age 16
• Work Permit: Age 16 & 17

When submitting the permit, it is important to provide all information requested on the form. Permits that have missing details will be sent back to the student for completion, which will cause a delay in the process.

• The Youth Employment law allows in-person, remote and electronic methods that are acceptable to the school or school district issuing the work permit. As such, all permits may be completed by scans and email.
• The Youth Employment law has removed the yellow and pink paper distinctions. The act now uses a different means to distinguish work permits for youth under age 16 versus those 16-17 years of age. Landscape for under 16 and portrait for 16-17 years of age.
