CareerSafe: The National Youth Safety Initiative (CareerSafe)

Through the Alliance, OSHA and CareerSafe will continue to improve awareness of workplace safety and health among youth workers, ages 16 to 24, school educators and administrators, and employers by providing them with information and resources on the most common hazards encountered by new workers in order to prevent and reduce workplace injuries, illnesses, and fatalities, and improve young workers’ understanding of the rights of workers and the responsibilities of employers under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act).
