Federal Labor law says that a minor who is under the age of 16 can work in non-mining, non-manufacturing, and non-hazardous jobs, for the following hours: 1  3 hours on a school day. 2  18 hours in a school week. 3  8 hours on a non-school day.  40 hours in a non-school week.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) sets wage, hours worked, and safety requirements for minors (individuals under age 18) working in jobs covered by the statute. The rules vary depending upon the particular age of the minor and the particular job involved. As a general rule, the FLSA sets 14 years of age as the minimum age for employment, and limits the number of hours worked by minors under the age of 16. Also, the FLSA generally prohibits the employment of a minor in work declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor (for example, work involving excavation, driving, and the operation of many types of power-driven equipment).
