Ohio Work Permit
All minors under age 18 who are in paid employment must have a valid work permit during the school year, and those who are 14 and 15 must obtain a work permit at all times of the year. Work permits are obtained by completing the following pre-application form and then submitting it to the school, where a permit is issued based on the information provided on the form. Also included here is the Physician's Certificate, which is for those minors who are required to take a physical for employment purposes.
