The federal agency laid out employer responsibilities for retaining youth employees safe, stating, “Young workers are those new to the workforce, even up to age 24. Young workers can be an asset to your workforce. However, it may be their first job or the first time they are operating equipment.”
Protecting young workers from workplace hazardsPECB
As young people reach the minimum age for employment, they are eager to find a job, and start making and
earning money. Most of the young workers undertake their first work experience in the retail sector; working in sales
and customer service.
The meaning and implication of young worker, or young employee, differs from country to country. As in some
places youth obtain the right to work at the age of sixteen, in others they may be allowed to start working at the age
of fifteen, fourteen or even younger under restricted conditions such as limited number of working days and hours.

Violence at work
A guide for employers written by the HSE.
This document gives practical advice to help you find out if violence is a
problem for your employees, and if it is, how to tackle it. The advice is aimed
at employers, but should also interest employees and safety representatives.
I wrote an article on Restaurant Safety in 2006 for FCSI's Magazine, The Consultant. Successful restaurants and foodservice operations worldwide are a complicated mix of guests, team members, products, and busy, hectic environments. Operators face difficult daily decisions just to stay in business. Employee retention (lowering turnover) has been identified as a crucial component of the management success formula. In everyone's book, it is just as important as brand, sales, and profits. During 2006 it will not get any easier. If you want to retain workers, lower costs and provide a great team member experience, you must reduce and eliminate worker injuries.
Protect your TEAM, and Protect your Guests.

1. SAFETY TIP:
5 Ways to Protect
Young Workers
More than 20,000 young workers are injured or killed annually in the U.S. Here are some NIOSH
recommendations employers can take to help protect young workers:
1. Recognize the Hazards
Assess and eliminate workplace hazards.
Ensure equipment used by young workers is safe and legal.
2. Supervise Young Workers
Be sure supervisors and adult co-workers are aware of tasks young workers may and may not
perform.
Label equipment that young workers cannot use, or color-code uniforms so others know they are
not allowed to perform certain jobs.
3. Provide Training
Ensure young workers recognize hazards and are competent in safe
work practices.
Have young workers demonstrate their assigned tasks safely and
correctly.
Ask workers for feedback about the training.
4. Know and Comply with All Laws
Research child labor laws and occupational health and safety laws and
health regulations that apply to your business.
State laws may be more restrictive than Federal laws, and they vary
considerably from state to state.
5. Develop an Injury and Illness Prevention Program
Involve supervisors and experienced workers.
Let them share their experiences with young workers.
