There has been some debate on whether or not 14 year olds are allowed to work at Tim Hortons. The Canadian Labour Code states that “No person under the age of 18 years may be employed in a hazardous occupation.
” In response to this, many Tim Hortons locations have a policy stating that employees must be at least 18 years old to work. However, this policy may not be enforced, as it has been reported that some 14 year olds have worked at Tim Hortons.
It is important to note that, even if an employee is under the age of 18, they are still protected by the Canadian Labour Code. This means that they are protected from abuse, discrimination, and other violations.
In addition, the Code states that employers must provide an appropriate education and training for employees who are under the age of 18. This education and training should include information on health and safety, as well as the job duties that the employee will be performing.
So, in summary, it is possible for 14 year olds to work at Tim Hortons. However, they are still protected by the Canadian Labour Code, and must be provided with appropriate education and training.
