With the May long weekend drawing to a close and summer around the corner, many young people will soon be taking on summer jobs. Young workers are vulnerable. They are, generally, less likely to speak up against authority (real or perceived), less experienced, and more likely to be injured at work. In Nova Scotia, many youth may take on jobs in the busy tourism industry. They'll also flock to construction, retail, and many other industries. If you're an employer perhaps taking on such folks, do you have a safety program in place that is both compliant and effective? If so, have you specifically considered the factors affecting younger workers? What sort of working environment would you like to see for your own child? There are resources available through the Government of Nova Scotia to help employers and youth in this area. Check out the link below. --- Joe Treen, CRSP, CHSC, HSP Craig Whitehead Lori R.

Salary and cost of living also impact your lifestyle and the life goals that you have such as saving and purchasing your first house! 🏠

Ancillary workers: an ignored but indispensable part of HE Catering, cleaning and security staff fulfil an important role in higher education, including maintaining the physical and social environment in which academics, professional staff and students operate. Ancillary work, as the work of this group is sometimes referred to, often requires a broad range of technical, organisational and relational skills and can be physically, emotionally and mentally demanding. In the United Kingdom, ‘elementary occupations’ (under which catering, security and cleaning staff fall) represent 12% of higher education non-academic staff – a percentage which does not include those on outsourced contracts. Despite the significance of ancillary staff’s contribution to higher education, research about this group remains scarce. Two notable exceptions, both in the US context, are Peter Magolda’s 2016 ethnography of cleaners in two universities, The Lives of Campus Custodians, and Verónica Caridad Rabelo and Ramaswami Mahalingam’s 2019 article, a mixed-method study of cleaners in a single university.
