Nov 14 HLabor Agenda: youth employment, work permit modification, criminal penalties, MI OSHA revision

Anyone able to comment on labor law? Nov 14 is shaping up to be a very busy day.

Consider your local nursing home kitchen - an ideal first job for youth. In the big picture, it could lead to a job as nurses aide, which for many (including me) is the first step onto the healthcare career ladder. 

Does this package of bills make that job entry easier, or does it raise barriers?

I've bolded font for bills that will likely impact healthcare.
