CHILD LABOR LAWS IN THE STATE OF MAINE

In the state of Maine children at age 14 and 15 must have a work permit if they want to work, even if they don’t go to school. When a young person has a job offer, they must go to the office of the superintendent in the school district in which they live and ask for a work permit.

Work permits help make sure that the youngest workers in Maine work in jobs that are safe and agree with child labor laws.

Each time teens under 16 get a new job, they must ask for a new work permit. Teens can have two work permits in the summer (for two different jobs), but only one during the school year.

Child labor laws limit the number of hours teens can work. During the summer, 14- and 15-year-olds can work a maximum of eight hours a day, forty hours a week.

Teens can’t take dangerous jobs. They can’t work with most mechanical equipment, they can’t be drivers and they can’t work in a cash-based business.
