Minors' hours, meal and rest periods

Under 16: outside school hours; at most 3 hours a school day and 18 hours a school week; at most 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week when school is not in session; between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. (9 p.m. from June 1 through Labor Day). Ages 16 and 17: at most 44 hours a week without a permit. Minors get a 15-minute rest period (instead of 10) and the 30-minute meal period.
