Summary/Abstract: Considering their incomplete psychophysical, ethical, social and intellectual development, minors under the age of 15 may not be employed. Young persons aged 15 to 18 are allowed to enter into an employment agreement under rectrictive conditions, designed in such a way as to protect their personality and interests concerning the choice of job or employment, health, morality, and education. A person who has turned 15 is allowed to sign an employment contract if the type of work does not endanger his/her health, ethics or education, i.e provided that such work is not prohibited by law; moreover, an employment relationship may be established only with a written consent of a legal representative and on the basis of the findings of the authorized health authority confirming that the younger person is able to perform the job as described in the agreement, and that the job is not harmful for his health. If these conditions are fulfilled, the employment relationship is established by signing an employment agreement.
