Work Permits

A Georgia Department of Labor Student Work Permit is not an employment certificate. This form is used for obtaining information for the issuance of electronic work permits. The student completes Section A. Employer completes Section B in its entirety. Thomson High School's Issuing Officer enters all data into online work permit system. After proper issuance of the electronic work permit by a school official, a printed copy of the completed work permit will be furnished to the minor for submittal to the employer prior to employment.  The employer must retain the completed work permit for the duration of the minor's employment.  For more information, contact Ms. S. Davis in the guidance office. If you have any questions that cannot be answered by Ms. Davis, please contact the Department of Labor, Child Labor Section at 404-232-3260.
