Youth Must Not Work During School Hours Says Official
A Labor Department official warned that the Fair Labor Standards Act prohibits youths under 16 from working in the fields during school hours. The rule applies to migrant families and year round residents alike, with exemptions only for certain large forms where minimum wages apply. The notice directs readers to the Wage Hour office at 1416 Commerce Street for details, as the law remains strict about school-time labor.
