Did you know that if you employ a child during the school holidays there are specific obligations?
For instance, as an employer, you must ensure a school-aged child is not able to work unless written consent is provided on a parent’s consent form.
There are also a number of other obligations that employers should be aware of when employing young people.
The Fair Work Ombudsman, Dept of Justice & Attorney-General (QLD State Government), Department of Employment & Industrial Relations and Workplace Health & Safety Queensland each provide information on employing young workers.
