Can a 14-year-old get a job in Rhode Island?

Answer 1

yes but it can sometimes get complicated.

Easy jobs are tutors, dog walking, baby sitting (and pet sitting) house cleaner, land carer (such as mowing, weeding, raking).

These jobs are average to 10 dollars per hour.

Hope this helps! Peace out!

Answer 2

Yes, with a permit, and a working license. Those usually cost about $15, and can be accessed through schools and your senator's office.

Different Answer: I thought Oregon didn't require working licenses from ages 14-17. The employer is required to fill out a form though.
