Working hours

The daily working hours for teenagers depend on their age.

Working hours for 14-year-olds are 3.5 hours per day, Monday through Thursday (14 hours per week). Every other week, work is done before noon (8:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.) and the other in the afternoon (12:30 p.m.-4:00 p.m.).

The working hours for 15-year-olds are 3.5 hours a day, from Monday to Thursday. There are some exceptions to this, but for the preparation and tidying up around 17th June, a 7-hour day will be worked, from 08:30 – 12:00 and 12:30 – 16:00.   For the last three days, we will also work full days from 08:30 to 12:00 and 12:30 to 16:00. We are doing this to give everyone the opportunity to complete the required working hours.

The longer days are as follows: 15, 16 and 18 June, and then 14–16 July.

Working hours for 16-year-olds are 7 hours a day from Monday to Thursday. Morning work is from 08:30-12:00 and afternoon work is from 12:30-16:00.
