YouthRules! Webinar for Employers

Submitted by Johnson.Wendy@… on

A free  compliance assistance webinar to help employers in all industries understand their legal obligations when employing young workers.  The Wage and Hour Division prioritizes protections for young workers. Employers are responsible for providing youths with a safe working environment and paying wages required under federal law. Young workers have the right to work where they are not at risk of workplace injury and where employers make safeguarding their safety and health a priority. This webinar will help employers understand federal labor laws and how they apply to the employment of minors, and will provide information and resources to help employers better identify work that is safe and that does not jeopardize minors’ health, well-being, or educational opportunities. Knowing the federal and state rules regarding young workers will enable the employment of minors in lawful work activities, and help ensure that they have safe and rewarding work experiences.

Minors are limited in the types of jobs and number of hours that they can work. The rules vary by age, and the requirements may be different if they work in agriculture. States may have their own set of rules that must be followed and are sometimes more stringent than federal law. To assist Oklahoma employers in recognizing differences between state and federal law, a representative from the Oklahoma Department of Labor will present during the webinar. 

More information about youth employment can be found at www.YouthRules.gov.
Meeting details will be emailed after registration is confirmed.
