Child Labor

In my search for a baker, I came across an applicant who was 16 yrs old. 

I consulted with PESO and I was told that  it'll be illegal for me to hire a minor who's 16 yrs old and below. If the applicant was 17, I can hire him if he has a written consent from his parents and provided that he will not be given dangerous tasks or be assigned to work outside the normal workin hours. 

In my case, if a 17 year old applicant came, I still can't hire him because working with an oven and other bakery equipment is considered dangerous and I need a baker/assistant to start work at 1 or 2 am.
