Dunkin’ Donuts is an American chain of coffee and donut shops. The company was founded in 1950 by William Rosenberg in Quincy, Massachusetts.
As of 2005, Dunkin’ Donuts operated 2,728 stores in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The company is headquartered in Canton, Massachusetts.
As of 2014, Dunkin’ Donuts employed a total of 277,848 employees in the United States, of which 84% were full-time workers. The average age of employees was 34 years old.
Dunkin’ Donuts does not have a minimum age for employees, but does require that employees be at least 16 years old to work in the coffee shop division and at least 18 years old to work in the donut shop division.
There has been some discussion in the media about whether or not a 14 year old can work at Dunkin’ Donuts. In 2013, the Washington Post published an article entitled “Is a 14-year-old too young to work at Dunkin’ Donuts?” In the article, the author discusses a case in which a 14 year old was employed at a Dunkin’ Donuts in Massachusetts.
The author of the article quotes the teenager’s father as saying that the teenager was given the job because he was “a hard worker and he needed the money.” The author of the article also quotes a Dunkin’ Donuts spokesperson as saying that the company “does not discriminate against employees based on age.”.
Based on the information provided in the article, it appears that a 14 year old can work at Dunkin’ Donuts if he or she is a hard worker and needs the money. However, the company does not discriminate against employees based on age.
