Thousands of adolescents are employed and routinely incur occupational exposures as part of their work. Case reports of adolescent exposure-related fatalities and illness, coupled with observational studies of chemical and other exposures with potential health risks, create a strong case for better tracking of work-related exposures and illness, better training for all working adolescents, education of their parents about risks, more clinical involvement in the health and safety of working adolescents, and advocacy for safer adolescent work environments. Because adolescents are neither children nor adults, much research is needed to clarify both exposure patterns and risks; however, existing data on adolescent occupational injury and knowledge of exposures to adults in similar work environments permit immediate interventions.
