What grocerie stores hire 14 year olds??how old do you have to be to work at a clothing store?

The law is different in every state. I live in Colorado, and our local grocery store (King Soopers), hires 14 year old kids as baggers. Next time you are in the store, find a manager and ask, it can't hurt

Well usually you have to be a minimum age of 15 and 9 months to be employed in any store, because then they can have insurance for you etc. There may be smaller stores (such as a private grocery store or bakery) that will employ you, but commercial organisations require you to be legally 15 and 9 months

Here is some additional information: 14 and 15 year olds can be employed in office and clerical work, including operating office machines, but only operating such power-driven machines, not repairing, oiling, adjusting or assisting on such activities. They can cashier, sell, model, produce art work and work in advertising departments, window trimming and comparative shopping. They can also price, mark, and tag, by machine or by hand, as well as assemble, order, pack and shelve. They can also bag and carry out customers' orders. They can do errand and delivery work by foot, bicycle or public transportation. Clearly, errand and delivery work by motor vehicle would not be permitted. They can perform clean-up work and grounds maintenance and use a vacuum cleaner or floor waxer in their duties, but not a power-driven mower or cutter. This last prohibition on operating lawn and other types of mowers and hedge and other types of grounds maintenance cutters frequently arises in municipal youth employment program placements. The rule is clear. Under federal law, this equipment cannot be used lawfully until the worker is 16 years old, and only in connection with employment at a retail, food service, or gasoline service establishment. Also, some states restrict the use of power mowers and cutters even further, not permitting their use by youngsters until they turn 18. With some exceptions, kitchen work and other work involved in food and beverage preparation and service are permitted for 14- and 15-year-olds, including the operation of machines and devices used for such work, such as dishwashers, dumbwaiters, toasters, popcorn poppers, milk shake blenders and coffee grinders. Cooking and baking, however, are not permitted.

Most are 16 and older some are even 18
