An Act relating to employment; relating to voluntary flexible work hour plans; relating to the employment of minors; and relating to hours worked by minors employed in the state.

SB 68 updates Alaska's employment laws to regulate flexible work hour plans and the employment of minors under 16. It requires written agreements and state department approval for flexible schedules, limiting them to 40 hours weekly and 10 hours daily, with overtime pay at 1.5x for exceeding these limits. For minors, the bill mandates written state authorization for most employers (except in family-owned businesses under direct family supervision), and sets daily limits of 10 hours combined school/work, plus weekly limits of 23 hours during school or 40 hours when school is out. The bill also reduces the age limit for minor employment from 17 to 16 and adjusts the law's language to reflect this change.
