Educational worksheet on workplace safety highlighting risks and statistics for young workers.

To answer the questions based on the text provided, I will locate the specific information in the passage for each question.

1. How many people were injured at work in 2019?
* Step 1: Scan the text for the year "2019" and the word "injured".
* Step 2: In the second paragraph, the text states: "In 2019 alone, there were over 2.8 million injuries..."
* Result: Over 2.8 million.

2. How many workers died from work-related accidents in 2019?
* Step 1: Scan the text for the year "2019" and words like "died", "fatalities", or "deaths".
* Step 2: At the end of the second paragraph, it says: "...and 5,333 fatalities."
* Result: 5,333.

3. What age group is twice as likely to become injured at work?
* Step 1: Look for comparisons involving age groups and likelihood of injury.
* Step 2: The third paragraph begins with: "Younger workers are twice as likely to be injured than older workers..." It then specifies that those most often injured are between ages 15-25.
* Result: Younger workers (specifically ages 15-25).

4. Why are younger workers more likely to be injured at work? Is a work related accident, such as a fall, likely to happen only to young workers?
* Step 1: Find the reasons listed for why younger workers get hurt. The third paragraph lists three reasons:
1. They lack experience and proper training.
2. They may hesitate to speak up or ask questions.
3. They perform physical labor more often than older workers.
* Step 2: Determine if accidents *only* happen to young workers. The first paragraph states: "Many people don’t believe that a working accident will occur to them... Therefore, workplace safety is not a priority to them." It also mentions that accidents can happen to anyone. The third paragraph explicitly says regarding falls: "Regardless of age, accidents at work can happen when you least expect them."
* Result: Younger workers are more likely to be injured due to lack of experience/training, hesitation to ask questions, and performing more physical labor. No, accidents are not limited to young workers; they can happen to people of any age.

5. What must every young worker do before starting their first task?
* Step 1: Look for instructions or requirements for new/young workers.
* Step 2: The last sentence of the third paragraph states: "Every young worker should receive safety training before his/her first concern [task] in the workplace for everyone." (Note: The text has a typo "concern" but clearly means task/job duty in context of "before starting"). Actually, looking closer at the very end of the text block in the image, it says: "Every young worker should receive safety training before his/her first [word cut off/typo] in the workplace..." The standard safety rule implied and partially visible is receiving safety training. Let's look at the bullet points or main text again. The text ends with: "Every young worker should receive safety training before his/her first [day/task] in the workplace..."
* Result: Receive safety training.

Final Answer:
1. Over 2.8 million people were injured at work in 2019.
2. 5,333 workers died from work-related accidents in 2019.
3. Younger workers (ages 15-25) are twice as likely to become injured at work.
4. Younger workers are more likely to be injured because they often lack experience and proper training, may be afraid to ask questions, and tend to perform more physical labor. No, work-related accidents are not likely to happen only to young workers; they can happen to workers of any age.
5. Every young worker must receive safety training before starting their first task.
