Requires employers to provide minor employees a written safety disclosure statement prior to initial assignment or reassignment to jobs involving exposure to hazardous substances, harmful physical agents, or recognized hazards.

Disclosure statement must include a description of job duties, identification of hazards involved, safety measures and training provided by employer, location of employer's safety record, and a statement that safety violation reports will not result in retaliation.

Defines "hazardous substance" and "harmful physical agent" by reference to existing Minnesota Statute section 182.651, and defines "recognized hazard" as any hazard likely to cause death or serious injury or harm to employees.

Requires employers to keep a signed copy of the disclosure statement acknowledging receipt by both the minor employee and the employee's parent or guardian.

Establishes new law in Minnesota Statutes chapter 181A, section 181A.071.
