Burger King recently came under fire for allegedly hiring employees as young as 14. Although the company has since released a statement saying that the allegations are false, it’s still unclear whether or not Burger King actually hires 14-year-olds.
Many experts say that the age requirement for most fast-food jobs is technically legal, but it’s generally not a good idea to hire someone so young. Hiring a 14-year-old is likely to create problems both at work and at home.
They may not be able to handle the stress of a full-time job, and their parents may not be happy with the decision to hire them in the first place.
At the same time, it’s not clear whether Burger King actually hires 14-year-olds. The company’s statement is vague and doesn’t offer any proof that the allegations are false.
Until we have more information, it’s hard to say whether the company is guilty of hiring underage employees or not.
