C 156 L 13
Synopsis as Enacted
Brief Description: Allowing a person to apply for a work permit for the employment of minors without completing a new master application under certain circumstances.
Sponsors: Senators Honeyford, Keiser, Shin and Hewitt.
Senate Committee on Commerce & Labor
House Committee on Labor & Workforce Development
Background: An employer seeking to hire a minor must obtain a minor work permit endorsement through the employer's master business license application. The master business license application is a form used to apply for various state licenses, registrations, and permits, and an employer seeking to hire minors must complete all sections of the application. The processing fee for a business license application is $15.
Summary: An employer seeking a minor work permit endorsement is not required to complete an entirely new business license application. The employer need only complete those parts of the application that identify the employer and indicate the employer's plans to hire one or more minors, the duties of the minors, and the estimated number of hours to be worked by minors.
