Illinois legislator wants to strengthen child labor laws amid migrant crisis – Center Square

State Sen. Robert Peters’ Senate Bill 3646 addresses children under the age of 15 who obtain a work permit. Anna Koeppel, legislative director at Illinois Department of Labor, said the current law primarily permits employment for 14 and 15 year-olds, as long as it is within allowable work hours and it’s not in hazardous conditions.
