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.

As I read the comments on this site I saw a lot of stupid illiterate 13year olds that can't even write or shall i say type on A computer.I understand being 13 and wanting to have money for yourself but life is not fair so stop being a big 13 year old and grow up!!!!!!!!!
