It would depend on the exact age of the teen. A 18 year old is allowed to undertake more hours than a minor.

What did children do in factories in the Industrial Revolution?

A little of everything. One of the things they used children for in the woolen mills was to clean out from under the big machines that spun the cloth. Children were small so they could get under the wheels and clean the lint. If the lint wasn't cleaned it could cause a fire. The big problem with that is that they never stopped the machines so the children would get caught in the machine and killed doing the work. Children were worked 14 or more hours a day and could be as young as 5 years old. They had no breaks and were given no meal times. Some factories locked their workers into the factory during the shifts. That happened in NYC with a factory that made shirts and the people making and sewing the shirts were killed when a fire started and they couldn't get out because the doors were locked. Many of people who died that day were little girls working there. In many places in the world children are still worked the same way they were 90 years ago here. Factories who make our basketballs, dolls, shoes, and other things are full of child workers.
