Can anyone advise how old you have to be to work in the kitchen of a public house? My son has just been taken on by the a pub chain, I went in for a pint and the assistant manager come up to me to ask how old he was, I told him 17, he says when the manager interviewed him he told him he was 18 but he also had his application form which clearly stating dob as 1991. He says this come about when he was entering his data on the system and he realised his age from a copy of his passport application. He was not sure but thought he had to be 18 to work in the public house even though he is working in the kitchen. He has signed a contract which I have read and no where does it state an age but it does say no one will be discriminated on age, sexual orientation etc.
They are going to call there head office tomorrow to clarify, so can anyone advise?
Cheers
