Arizona Child Labor
The federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) sets the
minimum age for employment at 14. It also limits the number of hours worked by
minors under the age of 16, and prohibits any minor under the age of 18 from
working in hazardous occupations, as determined by the Department of Labor
(DOL).
In addition to the federal standards, employers in
Arizona that employ minors must comply with Arizona's Youth Employment Law.
Arizona law regulates the employment of workers under 18 years of age. When
both Arizona's Youth Employment Law and the FLSA child labor provisions
overlap, the law providing the broadest protection to minors will prevail.
