CS/CS/HB 49 (Chaney) and SB 1596 (Burgess) make changes to the employment restrictions for minors. Under CS/HB 49, minors 16 and 17 years of age will now be permitted to work the same number of hours as a person 18 years of age or older. Under SB 1596, these ages are set at 15. The bills would also prohibit local governments from adopting or enforcing curfews on minors that are more stringent than those listed within the bill. (Wagoner)
