    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.

    Well... having a job is a big responsability, and I think that if people our age want to have a job I say give them a chance. I think having a job can not only give you money, but to give you something to prove to yourself that you are responsible. I would really want to have a job because, I would like to have my own money to spend. And i am so mature enough to have one.
