Work Permits
General information about work permits:
Work permits are designed to help protect you and ensure school is coming first!
You must have a work permit from your high school in order to have a job.
For assistance with completing the paperwork, contact Mrs B (mbuttweiler@rafos.org) (excluding summer break)
Work permits are renewed annually at the start of school or when a student obtains a new job.
Work permits serve as an age certificate and state the maximum hours a minor may work.
Students have restricted working hours depending on their age
You must attend school full time (except for summer vacation) and cannot be truant.
All minors must be covered by Workers’ Compensation, including minors employed by businesses operating from a private residence.
It is illegal for your employer to fire or punish you for reporting a workplace problem.
Permits can be rescinded by poor or failing grades and unexcused attendance.
