Top Ten Tales
We asked ten young people, now in their twenties, to tell us about their experiences of starting work. Some of them did work experience in very difficult circumstances - because of the nature of the jobs - but coped extremely well, especially as most of them admitted that they found health and safety dull and boring!
- General and early experience of work
- School work experience placements
- Work experience placements in further and higher education
- Starting full-time, salaried work for the first time
- How did they feel on their first day at work?
- Knowledge of health and safety legislation
