What is the minimum age as I heard somewhere it was 14. I wanted someone at school who was interested in getting into a salon xx
I believe it's 15 and 3/4.
I spoke to ACAS recently about volunteers. It's ONLY legal if they SOLEY observe. The moment they so much as make a cuppa, full employment rights kick in. The ACAS man agreed that the rules are a mess, but work experience was challenged in the courts, so that's the law.
Bloody shame for people trying to get a bit of experience. Standing around just watching would be frustrating beyond belief, and irritating to the staff.
