"It is crucial that young people are taken into account in all issues that concern them, and that youth organisations are consulted at all levels to that effect. Occupational health and safety is obviously one such area considering the need to create quality jobs for young people in Europe and that non-fatal accidents are much more common among young workers than among other groups of workers. It is therefore very much welcomed that the Safe Start campaign this year focuses on young people."
