With the end of the school year approaching students will be applying for summer jobs. If your business is hiring a Lassen High student, LHS staff is ready to help employers comply with California State Department of Education and Department of Labor Work Permit requirements.
LHS summer work permits will be valid from June 10th through August 20th. Student employees who are under 18 go to the LHS Safety Office to pick up the application for a work permit. The application is completed by the student and their parents and then the employer signs it before the student returns it to the LHS Safety Office. LHS will then issue a permit based on Board of Education policies, for students who had a minimum 2.0 GPA and an acceptable attendance record during the last semester, which generally takes one business day to issue. Students return to the LHS Safety Office to sign their permit and then deliver the work permit to the employer before their first day on the job. For question contact LHS at 257-2143.
The Chamber board is accepting applications to fill a board vacancy. Chamber members who are interested in helping to promote the business community and Lassen County by serving on the board are encouraged to apply. Stop by the Chamber office for an application or contact the chamber staff, at 257-4323, to have an application forwarded to you. Applications must be returned by Monday, June 5, 2017.
The Chamber Visitor Center is located at 1516 Main Street, Susanville. The Chamber office is open Monday thru Friday, 9am to 4pm, and can be reached by calling 257-4323 or via email [email protected]. You can also check us out on the web at www.lassencountychamber.org or Facebook -‘Lassen Chamber’.
Is your business in compliance? The Chamber still has a small quantity of 2017 Labor Law posters available for sale. The poster features all required federal and state notices on one poster. California employers are required to post updated employment posters at each place of business. Stop by the Chamber office to purchase one for your business.
