| New Hampshire allows the employment of minors under certain conditions. Minors aged 12 to 15 must obtain a New Hampshire Youth Employment Certificate, while minors aged 16 and 17 may work with a parental permission form. Work seasons, days, and hours are heavily restricted for minors aged 12 to 15 while minors aged 16 to 17 face fewer restrictions. Minors aged 12 to 13 face extreme restrictions on employment prospects based on industry; minors aged 14 and 15 face heavy restrictions and are largely limited to the food and service industries. Minors aged 16 to 17 face fewer restrictions and may work in a greater set of industries, especially those who are not enrolled in school.
