According
to the Ohio Department of Commerce, if a minor has all necessary paperwork
completed and is unable to get the permit processed due to school closure, the
completed paperwork may itself stand in the place of the physically printed
permit. Employers should keep the paperwork on file, just like they would the
permit. The formal permit should be processed as soon as the school is
reopened.
As a reminder, hour restrictions
outlined in Ohio Revised Code Section 4109 are still
in place for any week that was not a pre-planned school holiday (i.e., spring
break) and the prohibited/hazardous occupation restrictions are still
active.
