Child Employment
Devon County Council Byelaws regarding the Employment of Children state the type of work that a child or young person may do, and also the hours that they can work. These Byelaws should be considered alongside other regulations that apply to the workplace, e.g.. Health & Safety Regulations, The Factories Acts etc.
We will need a completed work permit application form
