Yes. Spouses in valid E-2 status are employment authorized incident to their status and can work for any employer once admitted in that status.
An E-2 treaty investor's spouse and children under 21 can come as dependents and generally receive the same period of stay as the principal. A key benefit is that E-2 spouses are considered work-authorized simply by virtue of their status, so they do not have to wait for a separate work permit before being employed.
Children admitted as E-2 dependents may attend school but are not authorized to work. When dependents need documentation of work authorization, USCIS issues an Employment Authorization Document aligned to the I-94 validity, generally up to two years for E dependent spouses, but the right to work flows from the status itself.
