Supporting safe, successful opportunities for Delaware’s young workers.
Delaware’s Child Labor Laws help ensure young people can work safely while continuing their education. We provide guidance for employers, youth, parents, and workforce partners on work hours, permitted occupations, and safe workplace standards.
