Work Permits and Jobs During COVID

1. Have the first two sections of the work permit filled out. 

2. Scan both the front and back of the work permit using a scanning app.

3. Email the .pdf to  Mrs. Everitt, along with a copy of the student’s ID. (driver's license or school ID)

 
(Please note, the work permits must have a revision date of 2017 or 2019 to be considered VALID.)

Scanning apps are free to download to any smart device, as well as the built in apps to your device.

Scanning app built into phones:

iPhone

Android

• If the student is 15 and under, they will fill out the CA-6 work permit; the permit must have both the application on the front and the directions on the back. 
   
• If the student is 16-17, they will use the CA-7 work permit; the permit must have both the application on the front and the directions on the back.

(At this time, the state has waived the need to have work permits printed on color paper.)

DEVIATION FORMS: 
Deviation forms are intended for students who will be working OUTSIDE the regular hours as indicated on the appropriate work permit.  Please note, students are technically “still in school” according to the Youth Employment and the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity.   

Seniors seeking to obtain full time employment, must request a letter of successful high school completion before becoming full-time.  Again, students are still considered “in school”.  Therefore, any senior, satisfied with their grades and have completed all of Lake Orion Community School’s Graduation Requirements MUST request a verification letter from Mrs. Everitt.
