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.

On 09/17/03 Alexadria from DC said: I think that 13 year olds should be able to work . We as teens should be able to sell newspapers and candy on the street and make money for it. 13 year olds have the advance as 14 year old so we should be able to work too.
