EMPLOYERS are being reminded that a work permit is required for all young people aged between 14 and 16 who work part-time while still at school.
Argyll and Bute Council said: ‘We are committed to the protection of children in employment, and there are a number of bye-laws which state the rules and regulations governing the employment of children – one of which is a valid work permit.’
Application forms for the permit can be downloaded from the council’s website.
