When young adults go off to work-sometimes for the first time in their lives-parents want to know they will be protected in the place of work. Who will watch out for their safety? Industrial hygienists are specialists who specialize in ensuring harmless and healthy work environments for employees of all ages.
Are teenagers safe in the workplace? Do they know what to watch out for in terms of safety? Consider these statistics from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH):
&Bull; On average, 45 percent of United states teenagers are employed each year-more than any other developed country.
&Bull; More than three mil U.S. Teens enter in the workforce every summer season and hundreds and hundreds of these teens are admitted to emergency rooms due to work-related injuries. (Read more:summer jobs for 15)
&Bull; Close to 200,000 adolescents suffer accidental injuries on the job and about 70 die from these injuries each year.
&Bull; Teens have the highest rate of nonfatal work-related injuries, even though they encounter the same potential on-the-job hazards as adults.
&Bull; The reasons for teen work-related accidents include lack of experience, gaps in present laws and enforcement, unskilled managers, working in industries that don’t generally hire professionals trained in industrial hygiene and/or safety, physical limitations due to lack of size and strength, and simple lack of maturity (“goofing off” on the job). &Bull; The majority of deaths and injuries of teen workers on the job occur in retail stores and restaurants.

&Bull; Common potential risks include automobile and machinery operation (for teens old enough for such tasks), functioning in high-homicide industries such as retail, working with or near electrical or hot equipment, working jobs with fall problems, and working jobs requiring manual lifting.
