Raise your Hand HIGH

I've long been a fan of the great, progressive work done by Work Safe BC... but now they've outdone themselves with an amazing, redesigned website that is social networked to the max - for their Raise your Hand campaign aimed at teens primarily and it includes:

• Facebook
• YouTube
• Blog
• Twitter: Their bio there reads "Injury isn't part of any job description. If something isn't safe at work, simply raise your hand."
• Make your Own Button: Add your face or not, choose colour, design, message, symbol of your workplace, and more! This button can be shared to your Facebook profile or other places, downloaded, viewed...

I love that this site is calling itself a MOVEMENT - a burgeoning Youth Activism cause. We at MySafeWork have been calling for a workplace safety movement - akin to the enviromentalism movement of a few decades ago.

Guess we weren't the only ones making the connection to the powerful social acitivism of the '60s and '70s... the entire Raise your Hand site is designed in the hippy-culture style!
