What is the maximum MINOR hours per week (Non school week)?

• A. 28
• B. 13
• C. 35
• D. 7

Answer: (C)

Minors have weekly hour limits to protect their health and ensure time for rest and school when needed. When school isn’t in session, the limit is raised to allow more work while still keeping a safe ceiling below the adult standard. The maximum hours a minor can work in a non‑school week is 35. This provides enough coverage for busier periods and peak times, without turning the week into a near-full-time schedule, and it helps balance work with rest and other activities. The other numbers would either be too restrictive for typical staffing needs or don’t align with the policy’s ceiling, whereas 35 hours fits the intended non‑school week limit.
