We all have a role to play to ensure the safety of our kids during Take Our Kids to Work Day.
This
year's Take Our Kids to Work Day is Wednesday, November 6, 2024. Take Our Kids
to Work Day is recognized annually and provides Grade 9 students with an
opportunity to explore careers and workplaces in Manitoba. At SAFE Work
Manitoba, we are committed to ensuring this opportunity is a positive and safe
experience for students and for workplaces.
Every workplace has hazards – and the risk of a work-related injury is greater
for new workers and visitors who may not have received a complete orientation
to a workplace's hazards. For Take Our Kids to Work Day, there are steps
that schools, employers, parents and students should take to ensure kids have a
productive, educational and, most importantly, an injury-free day in the
workplace.
