To make it legal for 15 year olds to start part time work if they chose to
If a 15 year old is wanting work, they are obviously mature enough to act sensible and responsibly in a work place. Therefore they should be given a chance to work if they choose to so they can gain work experience for the future.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Under current law, 15 year olds can work part-time with certain restrictions. You can find out more here:

You could start a new petition asking for the UK Government or Parliament to change the restrictions applied to 15 year olds who work, if that's what you would like to happen.
