14 the hours you can work are limited see the following: Under state and federal laws, youths age 14 & 15 may work: Permitted Working Hours - Labor Day - May 31st: 7:00 am - 7:00 pm June 1st - Labor Day: 7:00 am - 9:00 pm Maximum hours per day - 3/school day; 8/non-school day Maximum hours per week - 18/school week;* 40/non-school week *Under state law, a school week is any week Sunday-Saturday in which school attendance is required for any period of time for four or more days. For employers covered by the FLSA, the U.S. DOL has interpreted their regulations that the term “school week” includes any week in which school is in session one or more days. you also can not use laundry equipment/machines. you may not use any chemical that is considered hazardous. companies have their own policies concerning age requirements that may be more strict then the law. the only way to know for sure is apply, the worst that can happen is you don't get hired.
