What are the restrictions on minors working where alcohol is served?
Minors who are 16 years old and over may work in establishments which serve alcohol as long as they are employed to serve food, clear tables and other duties not including the dispensing or serving alcohol. There is an exception to this rule under Pennsylvanias Act 47 of 1999 (47 P.S. 4-493(13)). The Act states that it shall be lawful for any ski resort, golf course or amusement park licensee to employ minors fourteen and fifteen years of age to perform duties only in rooms or areas where alcoholic beverages are not dispensed, served or stored during the time the minor is working.
