51% of Kirov residents support allowing teenagers to work in the summer

      Starting on September 1, 2025, teenagers aged 14 to 17 will be able to legally work on weekends during the summer holidays, thanks to a new bill passed by the State Duma. This change to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation causes a mixed reaction in society.

      According to surveys conducted in Kirov, 51% of residents support the innovation, believing that it will open up new opportunities for teenagers, especially in areas where work is carried out seven days a week, for example, in cafes and entertainment centers. However, 24% of the respondents expressed concerns about a possible overload of the fragile organism and abuse by employers.

      The bill found the greatest support among young people under 35 (58%) and parents of teenagers (63%). While among citizens over the age of 45, the approval rate was 48%.

      The job market for teenagers is already showing positive dynamics. According to SuperJob, 12% of companies in the country today hire teenagers, and another 6% offer them internships. The number of resumes from minors has also increased by 13-15% over the past year.

      An analysis of the company's data shows that the most sought-after professions among employers in 2025 are salesman/cashier, call center operator (for boys) and assistant cook (for girls). Teenagers themselves are most often looking for part-time jobs in the positions of salesman/cashier and order collector/packer/picker.

      The new law opens up new perspectives for teenagers, but also requires vigilance in respect of labor rights and ensuring safe working conditions. It remains to be seen how changes in legislation will affect the job market for teenagers and their opportunities to gain valuable work experience during the summer holidays.
