What penalties apply for child labor violations?

Violating child labor laws can lead to fines, civil penalties, and investigations by the Delaware Department of Labor. Penalties may increase if the violation places a minor at risk or if the employer has repeated offenses. Employers who hire minors must follow all hour limits, work restrictions, and permit rules.
