It depends which country you live.\n\nBut 15 is the minimum in England.\n\n\nEdited to add.\n\nIf you are desparate to work and earn some money, look into washing up in pubs/restautants.  You can do that from about age 14 onwards.  It may even be younger depending on the establishment.\n\nFailing that of course, you could always apply to your local newsagents for a paper round.

In Arkansas, the minimum age for employment is 14.  Most places also usually go by 16 because you have to be a particular age to operate certain types of equipment which a lot of companies have.  If you turn 14 soon, try for a bagging position at a grocery store or maybe the front desk at a bowling alley.

In Michigan all child labor laws are predicated on age 16.\nfor example \nMCLS § 409.103 (2006)\nprovides:\nA minor under 16 years shall not be employed in an occupation subject to this act for more than 6 days in 1 week, nor for a period longer than a weekly average of 8 hours per day or 48 hours in 1 week, nor more than 10 hours in 1 day. The minor shall not be employed between the hours of 9 p.m. and 7 a.m. A minor who is a student in school shall not be employed more than a combined school and work week of 48 hours during the period when school is in session.\n\nThere is no similar limitations for age 17, 16 is the cut off.\n\nA minor however is defined as under 18. So 48 hours combined school/work -- applies up until 18. \nAll the other regulations seem to be 16.

You only need work permits in this state if you are under 16.   To get a permit here you would go to your school guidance counselor.  If that is not where you get them in you state the guidance counselor can send you to the correct place.

Labor Laws\n\nIt's not always as easy as it would seem for a teenager to get a job. There are laws restricting when you can work and what you can do.  Teens hired for nonagricultural employment (which is just about everything other than farm work) must be at least fourteen.  Other restrictions also apply:\n\n    *\n\n      Ages 14 and 15:  During the school year, hours are limited to 3 hours a day and 18 hours a week.  On days when there's no school and in the summer, working hours increase to 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week.  There are limits on when you can work, too - no later than 7 p.m. during the school year and no later than 9 p.m. between June 1 and Labor Day.\n    *\n\n      Ages 16 and 17:  There's no limit on hours, but, if you're under 18 you can't work in a job that the Labor Department considers hazardous.

You have to be older than a certain age. 16 or 18 I think.

No that is not too young if you can get a work permit.  At that age though you have to want to and have time for it.  School is more important at this age.  However a job must be found by age 18.

I would check with local employers about whether they would consider hiring someone that young... even with working papers most employers will only hire someone 16+, there are so many restrictions on employers of minors that a lot of them will not do it just because of the hassle.

A worker's permit is needed to be employed as a minor between the ages of 14 - 17. The minimum age varies by state, so you will have to check to know for sure. Even if the age to work can be as young as 14, many states have provisions as to the type of labor and the amount of hours worked that are allowed. Other provisions include the number of hours allowed worked during school days & hours of the day that can be worked.

You are pretty limited in the type of jobs that you can have so you may ask wherever you go to fill out an appilcation. Otherwise, the age limit is usually 16 in most places of businesses and tha is due to the Texas laws on child labor.
