Minors ages 16 and older are exempt from the hour and scheduling restrictions. These minors may work as many daily and weekly hours as the job responsibilities require or the employer requests.
Limits on Hours During the school year, minors aged 16 to 17 generally are limited to 4 hours of work on a school day, 8 hours on a nonschool day, from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. (or until a.m. on a nonschool day). When school is out, the limits are 8 hours per day and 48 per week.
What is the minimum wage for a 16-year-old in California? The minimum wage for a 16-year-old in California who isn't in school or otherwise exempt is the same as for adults, at $13 per hour for organizations with fewer than 25 staff and $14 per hour for those that employ 26 or more staff members.
Minimum Age Standards For Employment 16 - Basic minimum age for employment. Sixteen- and 17-year-olds may be employed for unlimited hours in any occupation other than those declared hazardous by the Secretary of Labor.

As a general rule, the FLSA sets 14 years old as the minimum age for employment, and limits the number of hours worked by minors under the age of 16.
What hours can you work: Young people can't work more than eight hours a day or more than 40 hours a week. Unlike adults, there is no opt out for this. If you work for two different employers on the same day, you still can't work more than a total of eight hours.
