If the labour inspector does not issue a reasoned refusal to the hiring of a minor within eight clear days of the employer’s application being sent, authorisation is deemed to have been granted. The postmark will serve as proof of this.
Where, within the same period, the labour inspector has made his authorisation conditional on one or more modifications or additions to the wording of the application, this decision is deemed to constitute authorisation to hire, provided that the employer complies, in the performance of the contract, with the obligations resulting from the modifications or additions requested.
