Sec. 13007-1. An inspector of factories, attendance officer, or
other officer charged with the enforcement of the laws relating to
the employment of minors or school attendance may make demand on any
employer in or about whose place or establishment or material or
equipment a person apparently under the age of eighteen years is
employed or permitted or suffered to work, and whose employment
certificate is not filed as required by this act, that such employer
shall furnish him satisfactory evidence that such person is in fact
over eighteen years of age. The inspector of factories, attendance
officer, or other officer charged with the enforcement of such laws,
shall require from such employer unless an overage certificate is
held by the employe the same evidence of age of such child as is
required upon the issuance of an age and schooling certificate.
Failure of such employer to produce such evidence shall be deemed a
violation of the laws relating to the employment of minors.
=Failure to produce satisfactory evidence of age.=
Sec. 13007-2. In case any employer shall fail to produce and deliver
to a factory inspector, truant officer, or other officer charged
with the enforcement of this act, within ten days after demand made
pursuant to section 13007-1 of this act, the evidence of age therein
required, proof of the making of such demand and of such failure to
produce and file such evidence shall be prima facie evidence of the
illegal employment of such child in any prosecution brought
therefor.
=Age and schooling certificate; by whom approved.=
Sec. 7766. An age and schooling certificate may be issued only by
the superintendent of schools and only upon satisfactory proof that
the child to whom the certificate is issued is over sixteen years of
age and has satisfactorily passed a test for the completion of the
work of the seventh grade, provided that residents of other states
who work in Ohio must qualify as aforesaid with the proper school
authority in the school district in which the establishment is
located, as a condition of employment or service.
Any such age and schooling certificate may be issued only upon
satisfactory proof that the employment contemplated by the child is
not prohibited by any law regulating the employment of such
children; and when the employer of any minor for whom such age and
schooling certificate shall have been issued shall keep such age and
schooling certificate on file as provided by law, the provisions of
section 6245-2, General Code, shall not apply to such employer in
respect to such child while engaged in an employment legal for a
child of the given sex and of the age stated therein.
