To revise the law that restricts the maximum number of hours that minors age 16 and 17 who are in school can work. The bill sets the limit at 20 hours of work a week, rather than the current law’s maximum of 48 hours combined school and work a week. During the summer the current maximum is 48 hours a week, and this would not be changed. The standard school day is 6.1 hours (30.5 hours per week).
