In the u.s. at the age of 16 but only part time. It's part of the child labor law. They can work at 14 and 15 but only with written permission from his/her legal gaurdian, but for only 10hrs weekly max. The age of 16 they can work no more than 30 hrs weekly. The age of 18 is where they can work ful-time 40hrs plus. And this applies in all 50 states.

That is a good question - I was "working" at 14 - I am not sure that is legal but I was classified as farm labour and a lot of laws don't apply to them

In America, 14, provided you have filled out your working papers, which you can get at your Town Hall.
You can only work certain hours in the summer and in the school year, so look into that.

16 for most jobs in the US unless it is a farm or family owned, then you can start younger.
