    It defines children as being aged under 16 and young persons refers to those aged 16 and 17. You can read more information in our document on working hours and rest breaks for children and young people.

    Children
    Under the Act, employers cannot employ children aged under 16 in regular full-time jobs. Children aged 14 and 15 may be employed as follows:

    Doing light work during the school holidays – they must have at least 21 days off work during this time
    As part of an approved work experience or educational programme where the work is not harmful to their health, safety or development
    In film, cultural, advertising work or sport under licences issued by the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (pdf)
    Children aged 15 may do 8 hours a week light work in school term time. The maximum working week for children outside school term time is 35 hours or up to 40 hours if they are on approved work experience.
