Anew law will tighten work restrictions for 14- to 17-yearolds and transition the work permit process to a centralized, online state system.
The legislation, proposed by Democratic Reps. Phil Skaggs of East Grand Rapids, Veronica Paiz of Harper Woods and Helena Scott of Detroit will limit 14- and 15-year-olds to working between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. during the school week, with a maximum of three hours per day and 18 hours per week.
