The title of this current event is Employing Minors in Michigan. The author of this current event is Wage and Hour Division. This current event discusses the laws and rules for employment for both underage teens and people that are 18 and older. Under age teens require a permit to be able to work and certain jobs and services. Teenagers also must not exceed a certain number of hours a week and a certain number of hours per day according to their age. It is also mentioned that there are certain jobs that kids cannot do. Minors under 18 also must be supervised by a legal adult that is the age of 18 or older.
I do not totally agree with all of the laws for minors in the state of Michigan. I do not believe it is necessary to have to have a permit for every job when under the age of 18. If the person wants to work then let them work, there is no point to make a bunch of restrictions for being able to get the job. I also think that jobs should be required to pay kids 14-18 minimum wage. This relates to me because I am a 14 year old who would like to work but not any less then minimum wage. All in all I agree and disagree with the underage working laws.
These laws and information will benefit me in the future in all sorts of ways. First if I would wish to get a job I could look at these laws to see what I need to do before I will be able to get one. This article relates to everyday life of teenagers who wish to get a job of some sort. In the future I would hope that the government would revise some of these laws to make them better. This will get me ready for the work life by telling me what I need to do to accomplish a job. In conclusion this article greatly relates to teenagers of all ages.
Permit-
To allow the doing of (something); consent to.
Employment- number of paid workers in population: the total number of people who work for pay in a particular population.
