Summer jobs: What Ohio teens need to know about work permits
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Teenagers looking for summer work might be surprised to learn that job applications and interviews are not the only steps they need to complete before starting a new position while school is out. A 2023 Ohio law requires youth aged 14 and 15 to have a Minor Work Permit to be employed during summer break. The Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Industrial Compliance's Bureau of Wage and Hour is bringing awareness to the subject by explaining the process step-by-step.'We want to ensure that Ohio's young workers start their summer jobs on the right foot,' said Stephen Clegg, Wage and Hour Administration Bureau Chief. 'Work permits are an important and necessary safeguard to ensure teens are working in safe conditions and within the guidelines set to protect their well-being.' The recommended work permit route includes the following steps: • First, students should start their job search and secure a position. • Next, Minor Work Permit applications can be found on the Department of Commerce's website. • Teenagers should download and fill out the form and have it signed by a parent or guardian.• Then, the employer adds specific information about the job and signs the document.• The completed request goes to the child's school district for review and approval.• Once approved, the teen can start working. ODOC Bureau of Wage and Hour also notes that each individual job a 14- or 15-year-old works during the summer needs a separate permit. These younger teens can work 40 hours a week until 9 p.m. in the summer. Teens 16 and older have no restrictions on work hours when school is not in session. During the school year, all teenagers aged 14 to 17 are required to have a Minor Work Permit. However, teens in the 14 to 15 age range can only work up to 18 hours a week and must end their shifts by 7 p.m. on school nights. Teens aged 16 or 17 are allowed to work until 11 p.m. on school nights. According to Ohio law, minors under 18 get a 30-minute break after every five hours of consecutive work, whatever the season.
