According to federal regulations, what is the latest time a 15-year-old can work on a non-school night?

  1. 7 p.m.

  2. 8 p.m.

  3. 9 p.m.

  4. 10 p.m.

The correct answer is: 10 p.m.

The correct response indicates that, according to federal regulations, a 15-year-old can work until 10 p.m. on a non-school night. These guidelines are established by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which sets the legal framework for youth employment. This law is designed to ensure that minors can participate in work without it interfering with their education. On non-school nights, the regulations allow for a later work end time compared to school nights, promoting a balance between work and rest for young individuals. While younger workers are restricted more significantly on school nights, non-school nights provide some leeway, hence allowing the later deadline of 10 p.m.
