what is the law on 16 year old employment?
so its the summer holidays 
and i’m working and my best friend is working too.
the difference being she is letting her work control her life.
i am able to fit family life and my social life around my work
but whenever we go out as a group of friends she always blows us off because she’s working.
one of our closest friends mum died a few weeks ago and she told her she couldn’t come to the funeral because she was working. which i think is now going too far. i’m sure you can get time off for a funeral? she says if she asks for time off work then the boss gets really funny. she’s a 16 year old girl working split shifts every day 9-5 and 6-10 and then working 7 days a week. she says they’re over staffed, yet when someone asked her to get them a job there she said they weren’t looking for anyone.
this is supposed to be a part time job
i haven’t spoken to her in ages, and i want to see her.
is there anything i can do? what is the limit on UK employment for a 16 year old?
As to time off for a funeral that is usually only for close family like parents/children/siblings/spouse.
‘She says they are overstaffed…’ – ‘…they weren’t looking for anyone’ That is what overstaffed means they don’t need more people.
Perhaps your friend is working so hard and so many hours for a special reason, saving for something, helping out her family etc. Unless she is unhappy with things I think it is probably best to leave her to deal with her life her way.
As you get older you will find that work does take up most of your life in the end, whether or not that is right/fair.
