Employers are responsible for making sure that any child of ‘compulsory’ school age whom they employ has a valid work permit.
A child is considered to be of compulsory school age until the last Friday in June in the academic year which they turn 16 years of age.
A link to the application form for the permit can be found below.
The employer should ensure that the application form is read and signed by the parent or guardian and the child’s school before returning it to the following address:
