What is the working age limit in the state of california?

Question

My daughter is 14 and she was wondering if she could start working yet, or maybe get a workingpermit. Keep in mind, we live in Southern California.

Answer 1

She can get a summer job through her school district. In Los Angeles, they have a summer job there that has kids clean up trash around their community.It might be a little late, for the school year starts in around a month. They usually start hiring around late June. You should contact her school district.

Answer 2

im pretty sure its 16.

Answer 3

I think 15..

Answer 4

yes. she would be able to work.

During the school year, minors aged 16 to 17 generally are limited to 4 hours of work on a school day, 8 hours on a nonschool day, from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. (or until 12:30 a.m. on a nonschool day). When school is out, the limits are 8 hours per day and 48 per week. The Labor Commissioner may grant an exception allowing up to 10 hours of work in an agricultural packing shed on nonschool days in the peak harvest season, if it prevents undue hardship for the employer and does not materially affect the safety or welfare of the minor.

Minors 14 to 15 years of age may work up to 3 hours on a school day, 8 hours on a nonschool day, and 18 hours in a week, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. when school is in session, until 9 p.m. from June 1st through Labor Day, and as many as 40 hours per week when school is out.

Minors aged 12 to 13 may work only on nonschool days, up to 8 hours per day, and 40 hours per week. It is unlawful to employ minors under age 12.

Answer 5

According to Education Code section 49111 and Labor Code section 1391, the minimum age that a minor can work in the State of California is 12 (with the exception of the entertainment industry).

Answer 8

your allowed to get your working permit when your 14 but its usually hard to get a job that young. if you find somehwere that hires that young then you can.

Answer 9

If you have a Chick Fil A near you, they hire at age 14. At that young the job usually consists of washing dishes and such. She would have to get a work permit from school. Most other places won't hire until 15 and a half. But state law permits working at the age of 14.

Answer 10

16 in the OC where i live. depending on your choice of occupation. fast food is 16, bagging groceries is 16. all you can do under sixteen is pretty much walking dogs and babysitting
