Full Answer

Employers in Florida that are looking to hire 15 year olds must abide by strict Floridian child labor laws. These laws are in place so that minors do not get over-worked, taken advantage of or hurt while on the job. Individuals who are 15 years old must not work for more than 4 hours at a time without getting a 30 minute lunch break. Minors cannot work more than 3 hours a day on school days and 8 hours a day on non-school days, and their total hours per week during the school year cannot surpass 15 hours. No hours can be worked during school hours, and minors can only work between 7 in the morning and 7 at night during the school year.

Typically 15 year olds who get jobs end up doing cleanup, yard work or babysitting. Teens should stay away from any job that does not properly train them or any job that seems unsupervised and dangerous.
