What is a work permit and where can I get one?
A work permit is a legal document required by the state of California that allows a person under 18 years of age to hold a job. You may get a work permit from your local public high school. There are four steps in obtaining a work permit:
1. Obtain a work permit application in the Career Center at your local high school (or the application form may be downloaded from the California State Department of Education website http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/ct/we/documents/b1.pdf
2. Fill out the personal information at the top of the application, get your prospective employer to fill out the information required in the middle portion, and have a parent or guardian sign the bottom portion of the application.
3. Return the completed work permit application to your high school where the work permit will be processed and typed. Your school will need 48 hours to process the Work Permit.
4. Bring the typed work permit back to the prospective employer.

Talk to your local school district as they're the ones who issue work permits for minors. Note that your child (or you, if you're the one seeking the permit) must pass certain requirements before you are issued the permit. Usually you'll need a GPA of 2.5 or higher to qualify.

The local public high school handles work permits ordinarily. When I was a teenager in Los Angeles, that's where I got one. It's a pretty straightforward process, the employer just says the kind of work and the number of hours, and then the school makes sure it's permitted (for example, kids aren't allowed to work in certain industries) and grants it.

The minor may obtain a work permit through their school.

I got one when I was in high school, but I don't remember exactly where. But I DO remember that my high school administrator had to sign off on a form before I could get the work permit. (And, of course, my parents had to sign it, too.)
So what *I* would do is call the minor's high school and ask them what the procedure is in your state. They probably have the answer right at their fingertips.
