I am 15, live in the UK and want a summer job. What am I allowed to do and any suggestions?

Question

also, how many hours and what is the minimum wage?

Answer 1

try clothes shop my friend got a job in uni qlo lol were all 15, 16, this is the last year of secondary school for me so nothing but 10 weeks of enjoying myslef, the minium wage is round £5 .50.

Answer 2

hey as you are 15 there is no minimum wage so they can pay you peanuts if they won't

Im 15 and i have a satarday job and i get £30 a day which im happy with , this is the average wage for a satarday girl

If you have a connection near you , you can go there and if you tell them stuff about yourself they will right you up a c.v, if you print it about 30 times (or whatever you think) and just hand it round to all your hairdressers, cafe's etc and one of them are bound to get back to you

Although when you hit 16 the minimum wage is £3.84 (but they will pay you areound that price any way)

Answer 3

Hello,

The National mimimum wage is  ÃƒÂ‚£3.40 per an hour.

You can take on any form of work providing it doesn't affect your school education in any way.

Shops such as Tesco are ideal, but I'm not sure if you have to be 16 or 17 to work there. Also, the environment is nice and friendly.
