The first six month that your employed you can work for any amount of money that you decide. After that the minimum wage takes effect. I just want to make one thing clear. If Im a teenager looking for my first job that is I have never been employed I would be able to work for the first six months Im employed for say 5 dollars an hour If I decided that was ok for the company to pay me that. Keep in mind this is just a one time six month exception. I do not mean the first six months your employed at every job you start. I think it might help with the teenage unemployment problem.
