West Virginia HB4876 modifies child labor laws by eliminating work permit requirements for 14 and 15-year-olds and requiring employers to obtain age.

West Virginia HB4876 amends child labor regulations by removing the necessity for 14 and 15-year-olds to obtain work permits. Instead, employers seeking to hire children aged 14 or older must secure an age certificate from the State Commissioner of Labor. The commissioner is authorized to issue these certificates upon verifying the child's age through a birth certificate or an attested transcript. The bill also grants the commissioner the authority to revoke age certificates if they are deemed improperly issued.
