Beta

This bill would require Kentucky public schools serving grades six through twelve to post a printed summary of child labor laws in their buildings and on their websites. The summary would cover which jobs minors are not allowed to do and how many hours they can legally work. This gives working-age students easier access to information about their workplace rights and legal protections. Who it may affect: students in grades six through twelve and their families, and public school administrators.
