A work permit is a type of a generic term that is used for the legal authorisation, allowing a person to take employment. Work Permit is generally given on instances where an individual person is given a permission to work in a country, where he does not hold citizenship. But in the United States of America it can also be referred to minors, as they need to have such a permit to work. However in some states for a minor to work he not only has to have a legal work permit, but his maintenance of school grades which are issued by the school. These states include Illinois, Indiana and the state of New York.
