From www.hallpayne.com.au: Employment rights for minors in Queensland are governed by the Child Employment Act 2006, which establishes a minimum working age of 13, with specific exceptions for supervised tasks that allow work from age 11.
Minors have restrictions on working hours, such as a maximum of four hours on school days and eight hours on non-school days, as well as limitations on their working time to ensure it does not conflict with school hours.
They are entitled to junior wages based on their age and protections against unfair dismissal and discrimination, similar to adult workers.
