In 2006, Taco Bell announced that they would be hiring 15 year olds as part of their “Boys & Girls Club” program. The program was designed to give teens the opportunity to work at the restaurant and learn about the business. However, in early 2018, the company announced that they would be ending the program due to low participation rates.
Some have argued that the program was a publicity stunt, while others have suggested that Taco Bell does not actually hire 15 year olds. In any case, the program is now over, and it is unclear whether or not Taco Bell will ever hire 15 year olds again.
