Student Work Permits

Student Work Permits


If you are 14-17 years old, you will need a student work permit. Here are steps to follow:

  1. Obtain a copy of the “Application to Employ Minors Form” from LAWorks.net or pick one up from an issuing office. (see list below)
  2. Give the form to your prospective employer to complete. After it’s filled out, have a parent or legal guardian sign the form.
  3. Take the completed form, along with proof of age, to the issuing office to apply for an employment certificate. (calling first is a good idea!)
  4. Bring the original employment certificate to your new employer.
