Services
Our unwavering dedication to young worker safety means that Youthsafe’s services are not just aimed at young people but also those who are responsible for creating a safe workplace for youth. Youthsafe’s holistic approach to safety, development, and well-being includes a range of useful resources and programs aimed at making youth safety a priority and enhancing a safety culture generally.
Why We Take Young Worker Safety Seriously
Young people incur 1 in 5 work-related injuries in Australia. This is largely due to their inexperience and general unfamiliarity with workplace health and safety procedures.
Data shows that on average, 16 young trade workers are killed annually. Oftentimes these fatalities occur because young workers aren’t aware of their rights in the workplace and those who are new to work are too afraid to speak out or ask questions.
At Youthsafe, our young worker safety services are designed to proactively address these situations with both young workers and supervisors to help transform their attitudes and behaviours with the ultimate goal of improving workplace health and safety cultures.
Youthsafe Programs For Businesses And Managers
Ensuring young people know how to take responsibility for their safety at work is important and employers have a duty to ensure young workers are given the support needed to foster this responsibility.
This is a duty that can be very challenging and one that requires employers to consider the special vulnerabilities of young workers.
Youthsafe has developed several programs and resources to assist workplaces effectively exercise their duty to all young workers.
