Question: What are the child labor laws in North Carolina? I am 14 and I live in North Carolina. I want to work in my mother's office (not her office but where she works). She is an opthalmic technician (assistant eye doctor). I would be a file clerk for the records. What's the dealio with this?
Answer: Here is what the NC Department of Labor has to say about you:
"Children under 14 years of age may not be employed in non-agricultural occupations. Permissible employment for such children is limited to work that is exempt from the FLSA and WHA (such as actors or performers in motion pictures, theatrical, radio or television productions). Children may also perform work not covered by the FLSA or WHA such as completing minor chores around private homes or casual babysitting."
This means you can work on a farm, do odd jobs for neighbors, babysit, or be a rich and famous actor. Choose the one that sounds most appealing to you and go for it.
