Guelph Young Worker’s Safety Initiative

Unemployment in Ontario is twice as high for workers under the age of 24. When young workers don’t know their rights, they are less likely to speak-up or refuse potentially unsafe work and might even be exploited by negligent employers. The Career Education Council is dedicated to providing youth with meaningful opportunities for career exploration and development. We are also dedicated to contributing to keeping young workers safe through knowledge about their rights within Ontario Labour law. We want to deliver our interactive workshops to young workers with the goal of keeping them safe while they gain meaningful work experience.
