“…The majority of teenage workers commence casual work at the age of 15, corresponding to middle high school in Australia, although some may commence sooner in family businesses. They typically work in jobs that require low technical skill and where safety training may be limited, particularly in small businesses (Delp et al, 2002). Limited experience, incomplete physical development, lack of self confidence and communication skills, the nature of employment, and lack of awareness of the work-related hazards can result in a greater risk of injury in the workplace among young workers (Bazas, Maris, & Vatopouslus, 2002;Dunn, Runyan, Cohen, & Schulman, 1998;Linker, Miller, Freeman, & Burbacher, 2005;Laflamme & Menckel, 1997).…”
