Youth Employment Essentials: Laws, Rights and Resources for Summer Work

Event description

Learn the rules. Share resources. Support safe youth employment. As summer approaches, it is important for employers, parents, educators, and young workers to understand the rules and resources that support safe and lawful youth employment.

This free Youth Employment Essentials webinar series will kick off with a federal session featuring the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division and the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. This webinar will provide an overview of federal child labor laws and resources available from both WHD and EEOC to support employers and young workers.
