• Working Papers...
     
    Working papers are required for any minor (under 18 years old) working in the State of New Jersey.  Any New Jersey minor seeking employment outside of the state must obtain working papers from the respective state (i.e. minor students seeking employment at Sesame Place or Oxford Valley Mall must obtain working papers from a Pennsylvania school).
