YSED 2016 Recap

For the fifth year in a row, the Ministry of Education proclaimed September 10^th as Youth Safety Education Day!

“Injuries at home or in the workplace can cause significant pain and suffering for victims and their families, and they are also a huge financial burden on our health care system. Youth Safety Education Day is a good opportunity to teach our young people, the future of our workforce, about the fundamentals of being safe,” Deputy Premier and Minister of Education Don Morgan said. “I encourage everyone to be aware and to take necessary steps to prevent injuries so that we all can continue to enjoy a safe and healthy Saskatchewan.”
