What governmental standards, laws and regulations do restaurant managers need to follow when hiring new employees?

Answer by  AnnaTeague (806)

Often there are city ordinances requiring restaurant workers to have health permits, either a simple TB test or an exam on food handling. State and federal governments regulate ages and working hours of restaurant employees, and require reporting of their wages and tax withholding, as well as citizenship status documentation.

Employees must be legal to work, have Social Security numbers, be of age and have appropriate identification. Check for additional specific laws in your state.
