Many Jobs Will Be Open For
Teen-Agers During Summer
“High school boys and girls]
looking for summertime employ-1
ment will find that many jote,
■re open to them which are per-,
mitted under the Fair Labor'
Standards Act—or Federal Child- ]
Labor Law,” says Mrs, Pauline]
W. Horton, Federal Represents-j
tive of the U. S. Labor Depart- 1
ment’s Wage and Hour andi
Public Contracts Divisions.
Mi’s. Horton pointed out that j
a youth of 16 or 17 years of age,
can work in any job which has
not been declared hazardous by!
the Secretary of Labor. These'
jobs, which include hazardous
occupations such as elevator (ip-:
erator, truck driver or driver's
helper, logger or sawmill work- i
er, require an 18-vear age min:-]
mum.
“Even children of 14 and 15
years of age can find a variety]
of jobs which are not
by the Federal law. Although'
the law sets a 16-year age mini
mum for many types of work, itj
permits youngsters of 14 and 15
to work in such jobs as office.;
clerical or sales work, and in j
vegetable and fruit - packing
sheds,” Mrs. Horton said.
“And during the summer j
months." Mrs. Horton added, “thoj
restrictions on working hours are,
not as strict. The 14 and 153
year old may work as many as]
8 hours a day or 40 hours a !
week, but all work must be per-1
formed between 7 A. M. and (
7 P. M.
Mrs. Horton said that the best j
way for an employer to protect
himself against hiring underage
minors is to require an age cer
tificate, which serves as proof
of age for purposes of the Act
These certificates can usually bo
obtained from school authorities
The act. Which applies ro om
plqyment in interstate or foreign
commerce, or in the product ion j
of goods for such commerce, con- 1
tains several exemptions from
its Child-labor provisions. These
include delivering newspapers to
the consumer, acting or perform-j
mg in an entertainment media,
farm work outside of school
hours, and work for the child's;
parents other than manufactur
ing, mining, or jobs declared
hazardous.
Since North Carolina also has
its own Child-labor law. Mrs.
Horton said that the higher
standards must be observed f
