The Young Worker Safety Response Center (YWSRC) is funded by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to promote the safety of young workers. There are free resources and training offered by the center.
Youth @ Work: Talking Safety is a free, interactive, skills-based 3-5 hour training program for young people. Even if you already provide safety training using an OSHA or industry-specific course, Youth @ Work can complement your training with additional fun, interactive activities to help build a foundation of health and safety skills. It provides basic information about recognizing and reducing or eliminating all types of workplace hazards, dealing with emergencies on the job and speaking up effectively about safety concerns.

National Young Worker Safety Day (NYWSD) kicks off Tuesday, June 25, 2013, at 9 a.m. at the SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference in Kansas City. As part of the larger campaign, “A Million Safer,” led by CareerSafe, NYWSD is targeted at making a significant and critical impact on decreasing the number of young worker injuries and fatalities in the United States. At the CareerSafe booth (booth C) at SkillsUSA TECHSPO, students and teachers will sign the pledge to “StartSafe. StaySafe” just like more than 4,000 others who made the same pledge on NWYSD in 2012.
