what is the maximum weekly hours a teen can work
You canât work more than 48 hours a week on average - normally averaged over 17 weeks. This law is sometimes called the âworking time directiveâ or âworking time regulationsâ. You can choose to work more by opting out of the 48-hour week. If youâre under 18, you canât work more than 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week.
