181A.02 PURPOSE.
The purpose of sections
181A.01 to
181A.12 is to aid in the economic, social and educational
development of young people through employment. Work is an integral factor in providing a
sense of purpose, direction, and self-esteem necessary to the overall physical and mental health of
an individual. Young people, especially those who have completed high school or occupational
training, should not be denied employment opportunities. Work, however, must be coordinated
with schooling and safety considerations in order to serve the best interest of the young.
