Streamlines youth employment regulations in Michigan by eliminating work permits, shifting age verification to employers, revising work hour and environment restrictions, and maintaining protections for minors in the workforce. This minimizes the burden on youth participating in the workforce. The Mackinac Center supports this legislation.
