Description

Child labor laws; appeal procedures. Clarifies the procedures and rules relating to agency actions to prosecute violations of child labor statutes. The measure imposes time limits during which an employer charged with a violation may seek an informal conference or appeal a decision of the Commissioner of Labor and Industry to circuit court. The measure also specifies the scope of circuit court review regarding alleged errors of law or findings of fact. Finally, the measure makes clear that Department of Labor and Industry employees are not subject to a civil penalty for issuing an employment certificate and removes a requirement that the Commissioner supply blanks for employment certificates.
