Question: Must a youth have a work permit to work?
Answer: The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) does not require that youth get work permits or working papers to get a job.
Some states do require work
permits prior to getting a job. School counselors may be able to advise if a work permit is
needed before getting a job.
