As for labour laws - the employer has to let the council know you work for them. It is up to the employer if they think you are suitable for the work in addition to the following basic rules:
No child can work until they are 13 years old, not even if they are employed by their parents/guardians
No child of compulsory school age is allowed to work before 7 a.m. or after 7 p.m. on any day of the week. On a school day, a child can work for a maximum of two hours per day (excluding school hours) either one hour before school and one after school, or two hours after school
No child is allowed to work more than two hours on a Sunday. On Saturdays, 13-14 year olds can work a maximum of 5 hours, and 15-16 year olds can work a maximum of 8 hours
During term time, no child may work more than a total 12 hours per week
During school holidays, children aged 13-14 can work a total of 25 hours per week. Their maximum number of hours of employment on any day except Sunday is 5 hours
During school holidays, Children aged 15-16 can work a total of 35 hours per week. Their maximum number of hours of employment on any day except Sunday is 8 hours
Children must have a continuous two-week break from employment during the year. This must be taken during school holidays. Children must also have a break of at least one hour after four hours continuous work
Children over 16 who are still in Year 11 at school will require a permit to be employed. There is only one school leaving date in Year 11, which is the last Friday in June each year.
What kinds of work can children do?
Children may only be employed in "light work". Depending upon the age of the child, there are specified categories of work they can undertake. You can read a full list of jobs that children can and cannot do in
