Youth or community group
If you're part of a youth or community group, we have a Young Worker Speakers Program and resources you can use during Youth Week (May 1 to 7) and other events, to help empower youth to be healthy and safe at work.
We have resources on a range of worker health and safety topics, including:
- Rights and responsibilities for new and young workers (a self-paced, interactive resource)
- Hazard alerts
- Infosheets, brochures, and manuals
- Videos
- Interactive tools and web books
If you have any questions about workplace safety issues, please email or call us at 604.276.3100 in the Lower Mainland, or 1.888.621.7233 (1.888.621.SAFE) toll-free anywhere in B.C.
