MINORS IN CONSTRUCTION

As we continue to receive calls and more high schools are offering a Skilled Trades program, attached is information on Minors working in Construction.

The question has often been asked – will CompTrustAGC allow me to work minors in construction?  The answer is Yes as long as the state and federal guidelines for minors working in construction are met.  Attached are the guidelines – feel free to share with members.

In speaking to the ALDOL, some of the guidelines may be released should an employer and student (enrolled in Skilled Trades apprenticeship program thru local HS or community college) register with the Alabama Office of Apprenticeships (https://www.alapprentice.org/).
