Are there any age requirements for the jobs on CoolWorks?

Most employers require staff to be 18 or older for safety and liability reasons. A smaller number may hire older teens for select roles. Some jobs that include certain duties, such as serving alcohol, driving, operating equipment, or working in certain states, require higher age minimums.

Always check the employer’s posting or reach out to them directly for specifics on age requirements.

If you’re under 18 and looking for the right opportunity, consider reaching out to summer camps, which often hire teens for counselor-in-training or junior roles. You can also create a saved search for Teen Jobs to be notified when new opportunities are posted.
