Anyone know of any summer employment opportunities for a hard working 15 year old in this area? My son would love to work this summer, but finding a job at 15 is tough.

The hay field. If he plays football or any other sports, throwing square bales onto a trailer is better than any summer weight program he can do. At least for me it was.

not sure how restricted he might be or how much as a parent you'd be ok with it but night stocking at grocery stores usually pays pretty well and the work is pretty straight forward.

15 year olds can't work past 9 PM during the summer.

The public libraries have teen volunteers and workers. The city employs kids of this age to be aides to the swim instructors, too.

Hours of Employment for 14- and 15-Year Olds
A child age 16 or 17 has no restrictions on the number of hours or times of day they may work. There are hour restrictions only for children ages 14 and 15, with separate state and federal laws that cover their work hours. All businesses are subject to state law but only those businesses covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) are subject to the federal law.
Texas State Law
State law states that 14 and 15 year olds:

  • Can work no more than 8 hours in one day.
  • Can work no more than 48 hours in one week.
  • Cannot go to work before 5 a.m.
  • Cannot work after 10 p.m. on a day that is followed by a school day, including summer school sessions when applicable.
  • Cannot work past midnight on a day that is not followed by a school day.

Like fcag jobs I think Mentors & Makers (near you RP & 6) has openings for technical cat herders.

  • Cannot work past midnight on a day that is not followed by a school day.
So if you're 15, some night stalking is allowed, just not all night.
