(You have the right to know about workplace hazards; participate in workplace health and safety; Refuse unsafe work.) True or False: Young workers have faster reflexes, so they are less likely to be hurt on the job. (False.) True or False: Your boss can fire you for refusing to perform unsafe work. (False.)

David, just 18, died February 1999 on his second day at work when he became entangled in a commercial dough mixer in a bakery. Steve, Matt and the Ellis family have joined in this campaign to help raise awareness of workplace safety and to encourage young people to ask questions about job safety.
