Young Workers Health and Safety

I've had several posting on older worker health and safety and though it appropriate to provide some information on young worker health and safety.

The California Resource Network for Young Worker Health and Safety has created a web site dedicated to this topic. It has information for teens, parents, teachers and coucelors. It also provides information for employers and youth employment specialists. It provides information on key California child labor and health and safety laws, training tips, and other steps employers can take.

Although directed specifically at residents of California, much of the information is useful anywhere. Plus there is a resource page providing links to resources in other states, as well as national and in Canada.
