At what age are children allowed to manage their parents' business? There is no straightforward age at which children are legally allowed to manage their parents’ business, as it depends on various factors and specific regulations. When a young person is under 18, they are subjected to three different types of classifications for work. These include the under 14, between 1 and 15 years, and young persons of 16 and 17.

In many cases, minors can work in a family business under the direct supervision of a parent or guardian, provided the work isn’t hazardous. Certain jobs are prohibited for children due to safety concerns.

It's best to consult with legal professionals to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations before allowing a minor to manage a family business.

That's right, there's no age limit for children to manage their parents' business, but children should be involved in getting to know and helping their parents' business from an early age, such as helping with packaging and separating items that are nearing their expiration date. Children will also learn and observe how their parents conduct business transactions.

I doubt if children this time like to manage a business. They are prone to watching videos online and playing games online, plus homework that never ends ,lol.

A child at 15 that has been trained early should be able to take up some management responsibilities in the parents business.

I don't think there needs to be a specific age, the most important thing is that the child is mature enough and has a clear understanding of the business

I only see children here helping their parents in selling vegetables. There's none in the malls and big stores. Kids aren't allowed to assist businesses in malls and stores.
