The province is launching several initiatives to protect young workers in seasonal, part-time or temporary jobs as the summer season kicks in.
The Ministry of Labour says it's planning to launch two province-wide inspection blitzes on health and safety and employment standards that focus on protecting young summer workers.
It's also planning a province-wide online video contest encouraging young workers to speak out about their workplace rights and a workplace safety campaign targeting parents and other networks of young people.
The province says there were 17 young worker deaths from 2010 to 2015.
