Mentorship & Youth Club of America is on a mission and here's our statement.
Fact
Working year-round at the age of 15 leads to a higher chance of being employed at 17 to 21. But what of the quality of the work? Those who work year-round at 15 have higher incomes at ages 17 to 25, and at ages 21 to 23 have higher quality job matches.
Benefits of Teens Holding a Part-Time Job
There are many benefits to adolescents obtaining employment, including:
-
Obtain valuable work experiences, which are excellent for a resume.
-
Learn how to effectively manage finances. Even if the teen is simply using their earnings to pay for their own expenses, they will learn to budget between clothes, movies, and car expenses.
-
May provide networking possibilities and set a child on a rewarding lifetime career path.
-
Provide constructive use of free time. An after-school job can also provide adult supervision, especially if you work longer hours than those in a typical school day. Employment gives teens less time to engage in risky behaviors.
-
Learn time management skills.
-
Form good work habits.
-
Gain useful, marketable skills such as improving their communication, learning how to handle people, developing interview skills and filling out job applications.
-
Instill new confidence, sense of responsibility and independence.
