    Question: What are the laws concerning jobs for 13-year olds?

    Answer: The Fair Labor Standards Act states that the minimum age for employment is 14 years old. A 14-year old that is a full-time student would be allowed to work in a retail establishment as long as the employer has obtained certifications from the Department of Labor. A business could be fined $10,000 for hiring someone under the age of 14. The age requirements for agricultural employment are slightly different.

    i definitely think they should hire 13 yr. old teenagers to work. That is just it we are not kids anymore, we can think for ourselves. Plus were definitely smart enough to work at a fast food restaurant because we've made it this far in school. Love ya Rachel
