Speak Up! - View Question #202 |
 printer friendly version
Question: How old do I have to be and where can I get a work permit?
Answer: The Industrial Commission may, by regulation, declare ay occupation to be dangerous, or injurious to the health and morals of persons under sixteen years of age and prohibit the employment or allowance to work in, about or in connection with the occupations by such persons unless a variance is granted. There are many restrictions for minors under 18 years of age The best course of action is to contact the Director of Labor at the Industrial Commission in your state. For Arizona the Industrial Commission numbers are 602-542-4653 or 602-542-4515. Explain your situation and what type of work you are seeking. Your potential employers and perhaps you also, will probably need to fill out some paperwork (application for variation) depending on the type of job, the number of hours, and environment that the job is located in.

Ive been to alot of places to seek a job and they always say "you have to be 18". Some of my friends are 13 and they have jobs and every body keeps telling me..who is almost sixteen that I'm too young. I need to find a job because my parents dont exactly have alot of money and i dont want to keep asking for money for the things i want and have them not spend anything on theirselves...they have enough to worry about. Its just a summer job..since i dont even live in this country... but i want to produce money.

I'm 15 and I won't be 16 until January 2007. I'm tired of just sitting in the house not doing nothing. I want to work , I want to be able to provide for myself. I dont want to always have to depend on my parents. But where I live there are not many jobs available, they either don't accept the permits or you have to be 16 or older. If you can help me out. Thanks!
