In the calculators: Idaho rules page available; automatic calculation coming. Until then the HoursReady calculators apply federal rules for Idaho and say so on screen.

Minors' hours (under 16)

Under 16: at most 9 hours a day and 54 hours a week, and no work from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. No hour or night limits are listed for ages 16 and 17. Where the federal child labor rules are stricter, the federal rules apply.

Idaho minimum wage: current rate not on file

HoursReady has no current Idaho minimum wage on file and shows no rate. Reading the current rate needs a human read of the state law or notice that sets it.

Idaho minimum wage (US-ID) is not verified against its source yet, so its minimum wage is not used. This needs a human.
