WorkSafeBC has officially launched the 2025 Student Safety Video Contest. There is $10,000 in prize money up for grabs, to be shared by students and their youth organizations (or schools, if the entry comes via their teacher/school)

This year's theme is:

Show up, speak up for safety.

When you are new to work, some things may feel beyond your control. But you have the power to make your workplace safer and healthier. Show up and speak up when something feels unsafe. Take part in health and safety activities in the workplace.
Tell us how young workers can do more than just show up at work. What can you and other young workers do to improve safety at work for everyone by showing up and speaking up?

Contest details:

• B.C. students in grades 8-12 can enter the contest with teacher or youth organization sponsorship.
• Videos can be in any style or genre, be creative!
• The deadline is Tuesday, April 1, 2025 at 5 p.m.
