What is the maximum MINOR continuous hours worked (ALL DAY EVERY DAY)?

• A. 3 1/2
• B. 7
• C. 10 1/2
• D. 28

Answer: (A)

Minors are limited on how long they can work in one uninterrupted shift to protect their health and schooling. The rule allows a minor to work at most 3 hours and 30 minutes in a single continuous period. After reaching 3 1/2 hours, a break is required before any more work. So, the longest single continuous stint a minor can work is 3 1/2 hours. The other durations exceed this allowed continuous period and aren’t permitted as one uninterrupted shift.
