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 04/07/03 Jessica from AZ said: I am also 13 and I always ask for money from my parents and never get any unless I do everything here and there and if I screw up I don't get it! I feel that we are responsible and strong and we deserve jobs. It is so hard to find one. My parents also tell me I need money for the extra things I want!, yet they do not pay me! Hello! Let us work!

On 04/03/03 Ryan from CA said: I think that 13yr. old should be able to get a job. Instead of always asking their parents for money and ost of the time not getting any. People sometimes think that we aren't responsible or strong enough well most are more strong or responsible. We should be treated with the same respect as parents. So we should be able to get a job at least.
