The minimum wage is automatically replaced with the Federal minimum wage rate if it is higher than the State minimum wage rate. Workers in a wide variety of industries are exempt from the state overtime law. A minor under the age of 14 may not be employed or permitted to work. Minors 14 through 17 years of age may only work with a work permit. This permit must be in the employer's possession before the minor is permitted to work. Applications for work permits are available in high schools throughout the State. Certain activities are not considered employment if performed outside the prescribed school day and the activity does not involve mining, manufacturing or hazardous occupations.*
