We have designed a social media campaign filled with valuable public resources. We invite organizations and individuals to join the conversation by sharing these workplace safety messages.
Even if your organization’s social media feed isn’t followed by a lot of young people, it probably is followed by adults who care about young workers so share these messages to empower caring adults to help the youth in their life stay safe.
Impactful messages, posts, and blogs are important conversation starters that open the door to education. The safety and health resources compiled here can be incorporated into formal skills education and on-the-job training.
