Alaska Work Permit

Provided that the employer meets certain requirements outlined by federal law, a child may be permitted to work a certain number of hours per week. This app for a work permit will help employers navigate the process for completing the necessary paperwork and collecting the required documentation to demonstrate that the child's health is not as risk and that work hours will not conflict with school. The prospective employer will need to prove that child labor laws will not be broken and that the child will be employed in a safe working environment. Questions about the type of work the child will be doing will need to be specified. (Hazardous occupations will likely disqualify a business from hiring a child.) Additionally, a parent or legal guardian of the child will need to approve of their employment. Proof of age for the child, for example a driver's license, age certificate, etc. will need to be documented. In order to be employed, the child will be required to provide a school record, and agree to terms outlined by the state about hours of employment.
