"How to Get a Work Permit for Minors"

When it comes to underage workers (in other words, minors, or those under the age of 18), you must have the necessary documentation in place to get a job.

You may be a teenager looking to gain a little independence, or perhaps your parents feel that you need to understand the value of a dollar. Whatever the case, there is federal legislation in place which may restrict how many hours you can earn a week.

This article will help you to understand what the rules are around underage workers and will help you discover whether you may need a work permit or not.
