We monitor applica

pUunfcs, Division Director
Skip Easterly explains
Easterly says thedivsion
wants to encourage teens to
secure jobs and acquire
tpeir youth employment
certificates early to avoid
the traditional June rush.
"In 1979, a total of 68,043
North Carolina youths ob
tain employment certifi
cates, and 15,235 of those
were in the month of June
aione," he reports.
According to Easterly, tc
secure an employment cer
tificate a teen-ager musl
complete the following
•tepe: (l) After securing e
job, take a birth certificate
to the social services office
where an issuance officei
will verify the applicant's
age and initiate the appli
catin process; (2) Take the
application form to the
Prospective employer, wht
identify the proposée
and work schedule anc
sign the application; (3)
Have a parent or guardian
sign the application; and
(4) Return the form in
person to the department of
social services where it will
be certified; and (5) De
liver a copy of the form to
the employer who must
keep it on file.
When the initial employ
ment is over, the youth
must return to social ser
vices and secure another
permit for the next job.
This new provision in the
1979 North Carolina Wage
and Hour Act was insti
tuted to keep a youth from
moving from an autho
rized, non-hazardous job to
hazardous work which is
not permitted. Paralleling
the U. S. Fair Labor Stand
ards ct, the North Carolina
; ards Act, the North caro
ina law disallows 17
general categories of work
considered dangerous for
youths.
» Easterly notes that there
are no hours restrictions
for 16- and 17-year olds.
They were eliminated in
the 1979 law. And, there
are no break requirements
for this age worker.
Youths 14- and 15-years
old may work between 7
a.m. and 9 p.m. when there
is no school the next day,
only to 7 p.m. when there is
school. They may work a
maximum of eight hours
per day on any non-school
day (six on the last day of a
school week, three on regu
lar school da>s) and a
maximum of 40 hours Der
week if there are fewer
than three school days in
the week ( 34 if three school
days, 26 if four school days,
18 if five school days).
Employers must provide a
30-minute rest break when
this age youth works five
consecutive hours.
In general, 14- and 15
year-old youths are only
permitted to work in office,
retail, food service and
gasoline service station
jobs," Easterly explains.
Any employer who vio
lates youth employment
provisions of the Wage and
Hour Act is subject to a
civil penalty of up to $250
for each violation.
