Question

I live in Gresham, really near to portland, in oregon. Anyway, I want to start maybe working at some fast-food place when 16.

I already know about the food hadlers card and I how to get one. But what is the maximum hours I would be allowed to work each day or week? About how much would I get paid an a hour. Anything that has to do with this would help. Thanks.

Answer 1

Um i don't really know but im pretty sure that if u work at mcdonalds that you get paid like less than $5 per hour.

Answer 2

As someone under the age of 18, you would only be allowed to work 20 hours a week and no later than 10pm. As for pay, it depends on where you work. You will more than likely get paid the minimum wage for your area.

Answer 3

Usually you start at your State's minimum wage.   Jr (Above) is right.  He even has his TD Troll with him.

Answer 4

I did some googling for you and I found out that OR min. wage is  $7.95 an hour. http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.h...

According to this website http://www.oregon.gov/BOLI/WHD/CLU/W_CLU... a minor (who is 16 or 17) would be allowed to work up to 44 hours.

Hope that helps! Good luck in your job hunt!

Answer 5

during the summer and weekend hours you can work 8 hours a day but during the school year you should only work 4 hours

most schools have a work program that tells what you are able to work during the school year and it is based on you grades in class

Answer 6

So far you are only allowed to work 20 hrs a week during school year in the summer you can go up to 40hrs a week and you will probably get paid minimum wage.

Answer 9

Whatever minimum wage is in your area, that's what you're going to get paid.  What fun.
