Safety training is promoted as a tool to prevent workplace injury; however, little is known about the safety training experiences young workers get on-the-job. Furthermore, nothing is known about what methods they think would be the most helpful for learning about safe work practices.
To compare safety training methods teens get on the job to those safety training methods teens think would be the best for learning workplace safety, focusing on age differences.
A cross-sectional survey was administered to students in two large high schools in spring 2011.
Seventy percent of working youth received safety training. The top training methods that youth reported getting at work were safety videos (42%), safety lectures (25%), and safety posters/signs (22%). In comparison to the safety training methods used, the top methods youth wanted included videos (54%), hands-on (47%), and on-the-job demonstrations (34%). This study demonstrated that there were differences in training methods that youth wanted by age; with older youth seemingly wanting more independent methods of training and younger teens wanting more involvement.
Results indicate that youth want methods of safety training that are different from what they are getting on the job. The differences in methods wanted by age may aid in developing training programs appropriate for the developmental level of working youth.
安全培训被视为预防工作场所受伤的一种手段；然而，对于年轻工人在工作中获得的安全培训经历却知之甚少。此外，对于他们认为哪种方法对学习安全工作规范最有帮助也一无所知。
比较青少年在工作中接受的安全培训方法与他们认为对学习工作场所安全最有效的安全培训方法，重点关注年龄差异。
2011年春季对两所大型高中的学生进行了横断面调查。
70%的在职青年接受过安全培训。青年报告在工作中接受的主要培训方法是安全视频（42%）、安全讲座（25%）和安全海报/标识（22%）。与所采用的安全培训方法相比，青年希望采用的主要方法包括视频（54%）、实践操作（47%）和在职示范（34%）。这项研究表明，不同年龄的青年对培训方法的需求存在差异；年龄较大的青年似乎希望有更多独立的培训方法，而年龄较小的青少年则希望更多地参与其中。
结果表明，青年希望的安全培训方法与他们在工作中接受的方法不同。年龄导致的方法需求差异可能有助于制定适合在职青年发展水平的培训计划。
