What is the legal age to work in California?
I am fourteen. I would like to have a job this summer to make some money. A man at my local survival supply store said he would hire me when I am the legal age. People tell me its 16 but another lady told me it's 14? I'm confused. And, how would I go about obtaining a work permit? What are the requirements for them?
actually in California the age is 12 IF the business is NOT covered by the federal law (FLSA).
many smaller businesses are not covered by FLSA.
in the US under FLSA a minor 14 or older may work in an:
Office,
Grocery store,
Retail store,
Restaurant,
Movie Theater,
Baseball Park,
Amusement park, or
Gasoline service station
BUT
due to the high the unemployment rate at this time it is very difficult for minors to get a job.........the jobs that use to be held by teens and retirees are now being taken by adults trying to support their families.........
Businesses such as Publix, Kroger's, Food Lion, Sonic, Chic-Fill-A, McDonald's, Winn-Dixie, Krystal's, Dairy Queen, and Burger King along with smaller local businesses that are in the same genre tend to hire those your age.
Fast-food and grocery stores are willing and able to train new employees but........................
Minors tend to have many issues that affect their ability to work such as tardiness, absenteeism, and numerous schedule requests, poor work-ethic etcetera.
I am NOT implying you will have those issues but the fact that many your age do makes it more difficult for you to get an opportunity to prove your worth.
Most businesses are individually owned and operated so it is the owner’s policy and past experience with minors that will determine if they will hire you. Apply everywhere you can, the worse that can happen is they don't hire you.
