How to Handle Completed Certificates:

  • Certificate needs to be signed by the youth, the parent or legal guardian and the employer.
  • Completed and signed certificates must be given to the employer on or before the first day of work.
  • The employer must verify the youth’s age, proposed job duties and any restrictions noted on the certificate.
