what age can you get a job at.?

Answer 1

Most states you can get a job at age 16. However, if you're going to school, there is a limit to how many hours you can work. In Michigan, your total hours spent at work and in school can't exceed 48 hours per week. There are some jobs you can get if you're under 16, like delivering newspapers, being an umpire for Little League games, being a lifeguard (in some states), etc.

Answer 2

The minimum age is different for what type of job, which state or province, and what country.
A little clarification would help.
