Book Description
The study was commissioned to increase the effectiveness of the information dissemination process. In order to develop strategies that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administraion could implement, older persons were contacted in focus group settings; organizations that could distribute traffic safety information to older drivers and pedestrians also supplied information to the study team. Individuals with higher socioeconomic backgrounds and more education tend to be attracted to information distributors that make use of facts and figures and to information pertaining health. Individuals with lower socioeconomic backgrounds and less education obtain information through local organizations such as churches and senior centers and are attentive to messages relating to personal security and well being. Out of 69 potential information distributors, 20 were identified with high, repeated exposure to large numbers of elderly people, a central distribution point, established mechanisms, willingness and ability to bear some costs of distribution, and current or potential cooperation with NHTSA. Information on each orgnization is presented in a directory that describes the relevant characteristics of each organization.

Protecting Youth at Work

Pages : 335
Book Description
In Massachusetts, a 12-year-old girl delivering newspapers is killed when a car strikes her bicycle. In Los Angeles, a 14-year-old boy repeatedly falls asleep in class, exhausted from his evening job. Although children and adolescents may benefit from working, there may also be negative social effects and sometimes danger in their jobs. Protecting Youth at Work looks at what is known about work done by children and adolescents and the effects of that work on their physical and emotional health and social functioning. The committee recommends specific initiatives for legislators, regulators, researchers, and employers. This book provides historical perspective on working children and adolescents in America and explores the framework of child labor laws that govern that work. The committee presents a wide range of data and analysis on the scope of youth employment, factors that put children and adolescents at risk in the workplace, and the positive and negative effects of employment, including data on educational attainment and lifestyle choices. Protecting Youth at Work also includes discussions of special issues for minority and disadvantaged youth, young workers in agriculture, and children who work in family-owned businesses.
