Alaska's Youth Employment and Safety Program

1/6/2015

 
What is the Youth Employment and Safety (YES) program? The YES Program is a youth outreach program that aims to teach young people about workplace safety. At no cost to schools, an Alaska Occupational Safety and Health (AKOSH) youth trainer conducts safety presentations and training exercises at middle schools and high schools statewide. The trainer establishes industry-specific curricula ranging from basic workplace safety to specific certification programs that help Alaska’s youth become more employable. Topics include: avoiding workplace injuries; how to report a safety violation to your supervisor; and understanding your legal rights and responsibilities. Students gain an understanding of the benefits and importance of safe and healthy work practices both on the job and at home.

For information about a youth representative speaking to students at your middle school or high school, call the AKOSH Youth Safety office at 800-656-4972, or email the Youth Training Coordinator at Elaine.Banda@Alaska.Gov.

You may also visit the Alaska Department of Labor & Workforce Development Youth Safety website at http://labor.alaska.gov/lss/osh-youth-safety.htm.
