    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 have a suggesetion.. First, you need to learn how to talk right. You can't just go into an interview and talk all like that.. They would definently not give u a job. I am 13 too, and I want a job too. But, if you want a job, learn how to speak
