Department Of Labor Certificate PDF Details

The Department of Labor Certificate, specifically designed for youth employment, outlines a systematic procedure to ensure the legal and safe employment of young individuals in North Carolina. Its comprehensive coverage includes steps for obtaining a Youth Employment Certificate, often referred to as a work permit, which is accessible through the N.C. Department of Labor’s website or alternative sources for those without personal internet access. The process entails a series of screens that gather essential information about the youth, the prospective employer, and the nature of the proposed employment, including job descriptions and alcohol beverage control (ABC) permit requirements where applicable. Critical to the validity of the certificate is the collection of signatures from the youth, their parent or guardian, and the employer. Before employment can commence, the employer must verify the youth's age, job duties, and adhere to any restrictions listed on the certificate. Moreover, the certificate must be retained by the employer for a specified duration post-employment. Exemptions to this certificate requirement exist for certain types of employment, contrasting with federal regulations under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) which may impose additional age verification procedures. This certification process underscores the importance of adherence to legal standards for youth employment, balancing the provision of work opportunities with the protection of young workers from hazardous or unsuitable work environments.

Procedure for Obtaining a Youth Employment Certificate

1.Go to the Youth Employment Certificate (work permit) on the N.C. Department of Labor’s website:

http://www.nclabor.com/wh/youth_instructions.htm

Computer access may be available at the potential employer, schools or public libraries if you do not have access at home.

2.Complete the application screens identified below. This process works best when completed at the employer’s location to ensure accuracy of job descriptions and ABC permit requirements. The completed YEC must be signed by the youth, parent and employer in order to be valid.

Screen 1: Requests information on the youth, proposed employer and business type.

Screen 2: Requests a response regarding the employer’s ABC permit status for most business types. This is a required field; however, a “YES” response applies mostly to restaurants and country clubs where alcoholic beverages are sold and consumed on the premises.

Screen 3: Displays job restrictions by age groups and requests selection of proposed employment.

Screen 4: Displays information entered for review prior to printing.

3.Completed and signed certificates must be given to the employer on or before the first day of work.

4.The employer must verify the youth’s age, proposed job duties and any restrictions noted on the certificate.

5.The certificate must be maintained by the employer for two years after employment ends or until age 20, as appropriate.

If you have questions about this form or youth employment restrictions, please contact the Wage and Hour Bureau at 919-807-2796 (Raleigh) or toll-free (NC only) 1-800-NC-LABOR (1-800-625- 2267). Our Call-Center is open from 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Note: Governmental (public), agricultural and domestic employers are not required to obtain state youth employment certificates in order to employ youths under 18 as these employers do not come under any of the state youth employment provisions. Therefore, the N.C. Department of Labor will not allow the issuance of youth employment certificates for youths under 18 employed by any of these employers. These employers may still be subject to the federal child labor provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and may have to comply with its age verification requirements. For questions on the federal child labor requirements, contact the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division’s national call-center at 1-866-4-USWAGE (toll- free).

Alternative Procedure for Obtaining a Youth Employment Certificate

The online procedure outlined above is the preferred method for obtaining a Youth Employment Certificate (work permit). If you cannot complete the certificate online:

1.Print the blank Youth Employment Certificate (work permit) on the following page.

2.The youth should complete the top sections from “Name” down through “Zip Code.”

3.The employer should complete the remaining sections from “Job Description” down through “Area Code and Phone Number” and sign the form. *Note: Employer must appropriately mark the “ABC ON-PREMISES PERMIT?” section.

4.Obtain the signature of a parent, guardian, custodian or person standing in place of a parent as defined in 29 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 570.126. Note: This signature is not required for a youth who has been issued a final decree of emancipation by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to Chapter 7B, Article 35 of the N.C. General Statutes.

5.Take the completed certificate along with a “proof of age” document (birth certificate, driver’s license, learner’s permit, state-issued ID, passport, etc.) to the local Department of Social Services (DSS) office or location of an approved designee. Once the information has been verified, the youth will be asked to sign the form in the presence of the issuing officer. Website to get all county DSS offices: http://www.dhhs.state.nc.us/dss/local/. Note: Some county DSS offices no longer process Youth Employment Certificates. Telephone before going.

6.Provide a copy of the “issued” certificate to your employer on or before the first day of work. The employer is required to maintain this certificate on file.
