The school holidays are just starting and many children will be keen to earn some extra money by getting a job for the summer break.

Employers, parents and young workers must be aware that there are restrictions on which types of businesses can employ children under the age of 15. There are also restrictions on working hours for children that apply during school holidays as well as term time.
