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 06/20/06 Kathryn from MN said: I am 13 and the only job I can have is babysitting. Which i really get sick of. Plus, anyone I know that needs a babysitter has one already. Its also hard for me to find work anywhere because I move from my mom's to my dad's and back again every two weeks. But If I had a job, I would change that. My mom struggles in the summer because she is a para-professional and I would like to help her out.
