ILO SafeYouth@Work Project
The ILO SafeYouth@Work Project, funded by the US Department of Labor, comes to a close at the end of 2019. The project worked in eight countries and at global and regional levels to make work safer and healthier for those aged 15 to 24, and to strengthen the foundations of workplace prevention culture.
The SafeYouth@Work Project collaborated with Governments, employers’ and workers’ organizations, youth and other civil society groups and educational institutions, through activities supporting enhancements in OSH data collection, legislative reform, capacity building, advocacy and research.
The Project worked intensively in several countries to mainstream OSH content into TVET and similar training. The guides developed for this work are available at the Project website and at the ILO CINTERFOR website. It also established a training program on OSH for young workers at the ILO’s training center in Turin, and, finally, the Project developed an innovative self-training package on OSH for young workers.
These materials have been designed to have broad relevance and utility for OSH or youth-related organizations, as well as practitioners interested in young workers, training, and strengthening prevention culture. The Project’s record of successful interventions to improve OSH data, legal frameworks, capacity and awareness are designed to be adaptable and accessible to a wide range of uses and audiences.
