Young workers are at the front of the line when it comes to workplace vulnerability. One-third of reported workplace injuries are from young workers.
The Alive After Five Young Worker Awareness Program of the BC Federation of Labour is an innovative initiative that seeks to make the province a healthier and safer place to live and work for all of us.
The presentations are engaging and interactive for the participants. The program has more than 50 skilled and trained presenters who provide dynamic and insightful information on vital subjects such as:
- Hazard recognition
- Knowing your Rights and Responsibilities in the workplace
- How to properly report injuries
- What protections are provided by the WCB Regulations
