School Releases, Instruction Requirements and Waivers for Minors Employed in the Entertainment Industry

(1)

The employer must obtain a release from the Superintendent, or designee, of the school district in which the minor’s school is located, when the employment requires the minor’s absence from school for more than five days.

(2)

The employer must provide minors under 16 years of age with no less than three hours of instruction per day, excluding Saturday and Sunday. The instruction must be provided by a teacher certified to teach in Oregon or, when the minors travel to Oregon from another state, certified to teach such minors in the state where the minors normally attend school. The instruction must be provided under the following circumstances:

(a)

When the school the minor is attending is in session; and

(b)

When the employment requires the minor’s absence from school for more than five days.

(3)

The employer is responsible for ensuring that adequate instruction is provided to minors under 16 years of age. If adequate instruction is not available at the job site, the employer must provide the minors with relief from their duties for the purpose of attending a school. As used in this section, “adequate instruction” means educational instruction of no less than three hours per day which is provided by a teacher certified to teach as indicated in section (2) of this rule.

(4)

The employer may apply to the Bureau for a special waiver from the provisions of sections (1) and (2) of this rule by submitting a letter application to the Bureau setting out the reasons for the waiver request. In the case of an emergency, the employer may make an application by telephone by calling the Child Labor Unit of the Wage and Hour Division at 971-673-0836 and setting out the reasons for the waiver request. The Bureau may temporarily grant or deny the application.

(5)

As the Bureau does not have the authority to certify persons to teach minors, interested persons should contact the Oregon Teacher Standards and Practices Commission for information regarding the teaching certification requirements in Oregon.
