As per UK law, the minimum age to work in Scotland is 16 years old. In special circumstances a work permit can be obtained allowing somebody under 16 to work.

Bars and similar places selling alcohol won't hire anybody under the age of 18 as they are not legally allowed to sell alcohol. Some retail shops also won't hire those under 18 while larger ones will. Most cinemas also require you to be 18 as 16-17 year olds wouldn't be allowed to check on the certificate 18 films.
