Answer 1

Work permits are for kids aged 14-15 years old according the Department of Labor.

DOL Youth Labor

The national statute says that any state or city laws that are more protective will apply:

But that is neither here nor there, because

at age 18 you are considered an adult in California

Answer 2

Work Permits are generally for people under 18. So no you don't need one.
