Hi
Sorry if this has been asked - I did look but couldn't see any posts.
Could anybody point me in the right direction for finding out info for teenager jobs. Am I correct in thinking that 15yrs and 3mnths is still the legal age for saturday and part time work?
Thanks

    i cant remeber the details of the top of my head but you can work 8 hours max on a Saturday at age 15 and i think its 2 hours on a school day, more in the holidays, something like that. The law talks about young people working from the age of 13 so being 15 and three months has no relevance on anything, its the same law that applies to all 15 year olds. I am sure someone will be along with more details soon. if in doubt check out your local council website, all the info should be on there.
    Debt free since July 2013! Woo hoo! The bank actually laughed when I said I have come in to cancel my overdraft.
