To apply for a work permit, please download the form and follow the instructions for completion:
- Complete the first section – “Minor’s Information”
- Have a parent/guardian complete the third section – “To be filled in and signed by parent or legal guardian.” Signature must be a physical signature and not a typed response.
- Take to the prospective employer to complete fourth section – “To be filled in and signed by employer.” Signature must be a physical signature and not a typed response.
- Please email [email protected] to schedule an appointment to process and obtain your work permit. Please DO NOT email your form as it contains Personal Identifiable Information (PII) including name, date of birth, address and social security number.
- Without an appointment, we cannot guarantee that your work permit will be able to be processed on the same day and a separate visit for pick-up may be necessary.
California labor laws require any child who is between the ages of 14 and 17 to obtain a Statement of Intent to Employ Minors and Request for Work Permit. The form must be filled out by the student, the prospective employer and by the student's parents/legal guardians.
