It is important to read and understand the terms and conditions of any agreement you sign; this will help reduce misunderstandings later on. Be sure to ask a responsible adult to look at whatever employment contract you are offered before you accept it. You could ask:
- Parents or Carers
- Careers Advisors
- Other responsible adults you know
Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to sign legal contracts in Australia. Ask your parent or carer to sign for you.
