Ohio lawmakers took action this month to extend the hours minors can work in the state. On Nov. 7 they passed a bill (SB 50) that would allow workers under the age of 16 to work until 9 p.m. more frequently with the permission of their parent or legal guardian. Even if Gov. Mike DeWine (R) signs the bill, however, the state can’t make the change unless the federal government amends the nearly 90-year-old Fair Labor Standards Act to allow those under 16 to work after 7 p.m. during the school year, which Ohio lawmakers also urged Congress to do by adopting SCR 3 on Nov. 5.
