We are a #publichealth program that promotes safe, healthy, & just workplaces through training, outreach, and research.

Each May, LOHP coordinates the Safe Jobs for Youth Each May, LOHP coordinates the Safe Jobs for Youth Month Campaign to raise awareness about protecting young workers on the job. As the summer job season approaches, many young people are entering the workforce for the very first time, likely without the information they need about their rights on the job, or how to stay safe at work. 

At youngworkers.org, we have resources that can help.  We have resources for young workers, parents, educators, and employers  Learn more:

In April we trained a powerful group of leaders sp In April we trained a powerful group of leaders spearheading SEIU's Workers United Laundry Division’s regional health and safety committees. They are preparing to negotiate with the employers and to bring information to their coworkers about their rights and how to take action on key hazards they face like high heat, chemicals, and repetitive motions doing hard and heavy work.  Industrial laundry workers are required to bend and reach to pull tangled heaps of heavy linens, use harsh chemicals, and push carts weighing hundreds of pounds, all in extremely hot indoor temperatures.  @workersunited.west @seiuca  #workersafety  #workersrights 

Image descriptions:  A photo carousel of members of the laundry workers union gathering. Workers are gathered in small groups in discussion, laughing, and mapping out the safety hazards in their workplace on paper. workersrights

Hace un par de semanas, hicimos una una capacitación con un grupo de líderes poderosos a cargo de los comités regionales de salud y seguridad de la División de Lavandería de SEIU Workers United. Estos líderes se están preparando para negociar con sus empleadores y para dar información a sus compañeros de trabajo sobre sus derechos y qué hacer sobre riesgos que enfrentan como el calor extremo, los productos químicos y movimientos repetitivos haciendo trabajo pesado y difícil.  os trabajadores de lavanderías industriales tienen que agacharse y estirarse para jalar montones enredados de ropa y s’abanas, productos químicos fuertes y empujar carritos que pesan cientos de libras; todo  bajo temperaturas interiores extremadamente elevadas. @workersunited.west  #seguridadlabora  #derechosdelostrabajadores

Congrats to Jimena Rodriguez-Gamez @jimeena.rdz an Congrats to Jimena Rodriguez-Gamez @jimeena.rdz and Santiago Fuentes @sfuentess.__  who have both been accepted into the @ucberkeleypublichealth, MPH Environmental Health Sciences program! Both Jimena and Santiago joined us last summer as part of the Occupational Health Internship Program @ohip.aoec. OHIP interns learn about the field of occupational safety and health from those with most at stake: working people. Jimena and Santiago partnered with @liunalocal67 and the @cafastfoodunion, among others, and their achievements remind us how critical this program is to building the pipeline of leaders in occupational health & safety that we need in this moment. 🎉
