FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business
Small businesses employing children would be required to keep the records as indicated in the proposal.
DESCRIPTION
This proposal requires employers employing children to record the child's name, address, age, time and hours worked, and to keep such records for two years. Records are confidential and
shall be disclosed only upon court order. When the director brings a civil action against an employer to enforce child labor laws, the director may consider the size of the business and the absence of enumerated aggravating factors in determining what amount of civil damages is appropriate to request. This proposal also makes technical changes to existing child labor laws.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
