Practice question
A producer seeks to engage a thirteen-year-old for an essential television role. It obtains the required parental contract, the child’s express agreement where possible, official approval and permit, and implements all protective and educational safeguards. It then argues the valid exception permits any hours and dangerous stunts. Which is correct?
- A permit removes every remaining child-labor limit
- The child’s age becomes legally eighteen
- Entertainment work is never regulated
- The age exception does not waive the separate hours, night-work and hazardous-work protections
- Every stunt becomes lawful if filmed
