Share - Empower - Prevent Every minute a young worker (age 15-25) is injured on the job and every day one young worker loses their life in a workplace incident. Join our social media campaign to bring awareness to youth, educators, parents, supervisors, and employers about the importance of workplace safety. We can increase hazard awareness and avoidance skills. We can empower youth with knowledge of their workplace rights and responsibilities. We can prevent injuries, avoid illnesses, and save lives.

OSHA is partnering with worker safety organizations on #MySafeSummerJob , as social media campaign to educate young workers about their rights in the workplace, how to speak up about dangerous work conditions and how to protect themselves on the job. Safe work is rewarding work. Employers have the responsibility to provide a safe workplace and must follow all OSHA safety and health standards to prevent youth (and all workers) from being injured or becoming ill on the job. OSHA has created a Young Workers area on their website to help young workers prevent job-related injuries and illnesses. OSHA's goal is for every young worker to have a safe and rewarding work experience.
