It’s that time of the year when most teens are thinking about getting a summer job. One of the things you need to concern yourself with as a teen is how many hours you can work legally. Well, according to the US Department of Labor: http://www.dol.gov/, teens can work outside school hours in various non-manufacturing, non-mining, non-hazardous jobs under certain conditions. The article that I was reading didn’t say what those conditions were but the permissible work hours are:
* 3 hours on a school day;
* 18 hours in a school week;
* 8 hours on a non-school day;
* 40 hours in a non-school week; and
* between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., except from June 1 through Labor Day, when nighttime work hours are extended to 9 p.m.
But, laws vary from state from state, so you need to check with your school guidance counselor for specific information about your state. Also, make sure you understand the laws about the minimum age to work.
Good luck !
