For Your Information: Seasonal Worker Safety and Health Social Media Messaging
"Good Morning,
OSHA is using its social media platforms to share messaging on workplace safety and health for teens who will be employed over the holiday season, and we would appreciate your support in this effort and in sharing it with your stakeholders, as appropriate.
Attached is a social media tool kit that contains example social media posts, including hashtags, and a set of images geared toward teens, employers, parents, and educators for your consideration and use in supporting this effort.
There are a number of ways you can get involved:
Follow us as we share posts and information through our social media platforms. You can find us as @OSHA_DOL for Twitter and @departmentoflabor for Facebook.
Follow a campaign organizer, CareerSafe, who can be found on Twitter as @CareerSafe and on Facebook as CareerSafe Online.
Retweet or share our posts on your page or feed.
Respond or comment using #KeepTeenWorkersSafe and #KeepWorkersSafe.
Review the social media posts in the attached toolkit, then make them your own, originate the messages from your account, and use #KeepTeenWorkersSafe or #KeepWorkersSafe in your posts.
Whether or not you are able to participate by sharing posts through the week, please show your support by posting the following message on Wednesday, December 9, 2020.
I care about the safety and health of teen workers! #KeepTeenWorkersSafe #KeepWorkersSafe
If you have any questions about the campaign, feel free to reach out to Tina Jones with OSHA at jones.tina@dol.gov or Katie George with CareerSafe at Katie.George@careersafeonline.com."
