Looking for Teens Jobs Online

Looking for teens jobs online can be a bit overwhelming. Teens who aren't familiar with how to search, labor laws, and other information may need a little guidance. However, there are several opportunities for jobs that can be found online.

Teens can often look for jobs online.

While most teens are very familiar with the Internet and all that it has to offer, they may not feel so at ease when it comes to looking for teens jobs online. Type in the words job search, and you'll be given over 36 million results! That's a lot of job related links! Most teens will need help narrowing their search. Parents who are familiar with searching for topics online may be able to give their kids all of the guidance they need. For more help options, however, consider the following individuals and places.

• High School Guidance Office-The first stop for those looking for teens jobs online should be the high school guidance office. Most guidance counselors are very familiar with job search engines, and many may already have outside contacts that they communicate with on a daily or weekly basis. Your guidance counselor can usually steer you in the right direction!
• Teachers/Coaches-After talking with your guidance counselor be sure you swing by a couple of teachers' rooms or coaches' offices and ask them for suggestions. They may also be familiar with searching for jobs online as well.
• Career Resource Centers-If there is a local community college or university in your area, you should head straight to their career resource center. Even though you aren't enrolled at their school, the resource center's director may be able to help you with your search as well.

Before you get too far into your search, you should become familiar with the Child Labor Laws. The U.S. Department of Labor oversees the Fair Labor Standards Act which restricts the employment and abuse of child workers. According to the Department of Labor, The rules vary depending upon the particular age of the minor and the particular job involved. As a general rule, the FLSA sets 14 years of age as the minimum age for employment, and limits the number of hours worked by minors under the age of 16. Also, the FLSA generally prohibits the employment of a minor in work declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor (for example, work involving excavation, driving, and the operation of many types of power-driven equipment).

Many states have specific documents that must be completed before a minor can be employed. For most states, this documentation is simply a work permit. For specific information about your state, click here.
