Bill > HB457

This bill amends Kentucky state law to require public schools with students in grades six through twelve to display and publish detailed information about child labor laws. Specifically, starting in the 2025-2026 school year, local school boards must prominently display a printed abstract of Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) 339.210 to 339.450 in both English and Spanish within each school building. This display must include a comprehensive list of occupations that are limited or prohibited for minors, as well as a clear notice detailing the permissible working hours for minors on each day of the week. In addition to the physical display in a prominent school location like an entryway or common area, schools must also post this same child labor law information on their district or school website. The bill aims to increase awareness among students about legal protections and restrictions surrounding youth employment, ensuring that young workers are informed about their rights and limitations in the workplace.
