Student work authorised from age 15

15/05/2026
In brief

Young people can now take on a student job from the age of 15, whether or not they are still subject to full-time compulsory schooling. This opens the door for them to earn a bit of money, develop their independence and discover the world of work earlier. It also meets the needs of businesses looking for extra support, particularly during busy periods. A concrete measure to give young people more opportunities while supporting employers on the ground.
