Press service of Ministry of Labor and Social Welfare tells how minors can be employed, writes BELTA

The agency reminded that minors can work from the age of 14, but with the written consent of one of the parents. From the age of 16, such a decision can be made independently.

A minor from 14 to 16 years old can work no more than 23 hours a week (during vacations - no more than 4 hours 36 minutes a day and only light labor tasks). And a minor from 16 to 18 years old - no more than 35 (7 hours). “It is forbidden to involve children in night and overtime, work on holidays and weekends”, - emphasized in the agency.

All persons under 18 years of age are hired only after medical examination. And the amount of accrued wages for a fully worked month should not be less than the minimum wage.
