WorksafeNB's Focus on Safety Video Contest

Prizes to be won!!

1st place  – $1,000 plus $1,000 for school
2nd place  – $750 plus $750 for school
3rd place  – $500 plus $500 for school
 
Young people are three to four times more likely to be hurt on the job within the first six months of employment than the average Canadian worker. Inexperience, unfamiliarity with health and safety laws and lack of confidence to speak up and ask questions are some reasons why young people are more vulnerable to workplace injury.
 
To help reduce the risk, WorkSafeNB, in co-operation with the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety, is hosting the “Focus on Safety” youth video contest. The contest challenges high school students to create a two-minute original video that captures the importance of working safely. Prizes include cash for both students and their high schools.
 
The provincial contest runs until April 6, 2018. The first-place winning video from the New Brunswick contest will then be entered in the Canadian “Focus on Safety” finals, where it will compete against other winning videos from across the country. It will also be viewed by Canadians coast-to-coast during Fan Favourite Week in late April.
