EDUCATION CODE

SECTION 49140-49141

49140. Every owner, tenant, or operator of a farm employing thereon
as agricultural labor any parent or guardian having minor children
in his immediate care and custody shall post at a conspicuous place
on the property or place of employment where it may be easily read by
those employed, a notice stating that minor children are not allowed
to work upon the premises unless legally permitted to do so by law
and unless permits to work have been secured by the minor children
from duly constituted authorities. All such notices shall be printed
in both the English and Spanish languages.

49141. In order that children may be disciplined and trained in
habits of work and industry by their parents, guardians, or other
persons standing in the place of parents, nothing in this chapter
shall require a permit to work to be issued to any minor or require a
permit to employ to be issued to the parent or guardian when the
work or intended work to be performed by the minor is for or under
the control of his parent or guardian and is performed upon or in
connection with the premises owned, operated, or controlled by the
parent or guardian. Nothing in this section shall be held to affect
existing provisions of law which require permits to work to be issued
to minors employed in manufacturing, mercantile, or similar
commercial enterprises by their parents or guardians, or to do work
which is otherwise forbidden by Section 1294, 1296, or 1308.5 of the
Labor Code. All other provisions of law relating to compulsory
education shall be effective as to the minor.
