Before you start a new job, there are probably many questions on your mind &#8211; what is the company dress code? Will my coworkers be friendly? What will I be doing?
Most importantly, as a new employee, you should ask questions such as: am I being adequately paid according to my skills and qualifications and/or in accordance with provincial/territorial guidelines? What are the hours of work per day and/or week? What other health, safety and regulatory standards should I be aware of before accepting a summer job? 
To ensure you are treated fairly in the workplace, it is important to know your rights and learn about employment standards which apply to you.
Some key standards you should be aware of include: minimum wage rates, hours of work, daily break periods and overtime pay.&#160; It is also important to know about your right to workplace ...]]></description>

The day started just like any other day. Candace1 went to work at the paper mill to earn money for school. She tried to take a short cut over a conveyor belt &#8211; supervisors and co-workers did it all the time. She fell and her foot got caught in the conveyor system. There was no emergency button close by &#8211; the only reason Candace is alive today is because a co-worker was able to stop the conveyor belt.
Candace&#8217;s leg was damaged almost beyond repair and had to be amputated below the knee. She may have walked into work that morning, but it was the last day she would ever walk on her own two legs.
It is usually inexperience which places young workers at an increased risk of injury, illness and death. A lack of knowledge means young workers often don&#8217;t know how ...]]></description>

A good r&#233;sum&#233; has one objective &#8211; to help you land an interview. Your r&#233;sum&#233; provides potential employers with a brief summary of your work and volunteer experience, education and skills. An effective r&#233;sum&#233; will help you sell your skills and abilities to employers.
You may also use your r&#233;sum&#233; in other situations such as applying for a scholarship, seeking admission to an educational institution or applying for a work visa in another country.
Before you begin your r&#233;sum&#233;, think about the type of skills you have that employers will find valuable and think about what skills may be required for the job you are applying for. After brainstorming about your skills and abilities, think about what experiences you&#8217;ve had at work, at school and in volunteer positions that will help demonstrate these skills.
After you&#8217;ve finished putting this content together, you are ready to ...]]></description>

In order to get a summer job, you need to know where to look. Networking can help you to find job opportunities. It can be described as talking with people who can help you reach your career goals, and it can be formal or informal. An informal chat with a neighbour or a formal scheduled meeting with a company manager are both examples of networking.
&#160;&#160;&#160; 
You can learn to network effectively by following a few simple rules:
Keep your visits brief.
Appear enthusiastic about the information your contact is sharing.
Never ask your contact to do your job search for you.
View the meeting as an opportunity to gather information rather than as a job interview.
Some questions you might want to ask your contact are:
How did you break into this field?
Do you know of any companies that are expanding rapidly?
Can I keep in touch with you?

When busy employers narrow down applicants for a job, they may use the Eight Keys to Employability as a screening tool. These eight keys help employers remain equitable while hiring the best candidate for the job.
To better your chances of finding a job, show potential employers that you have the Eight Keys to Employability.

1. Personal values: Employers want workers who demonstrate a positive attitude and are motivated, honest, and goal-oriented. Project a positive self-image to employers and demonstrate that you are willing to reach beyond personal limitations.
2. Problem-solving and decision-making skills: Employers in all industries want employees that are flexible, creative, innovative and are able to reason and make objective judgments.
3. Ability to relate with other people: Employers want friendly, co-operative team members who can demonstrate leadership qualities. Respect is an important aspect of this key.
4. Communication skills: Companies are looking for ...]]></description>

Are you wondering what to put on your r&#233;sum&#233; because you lack on-the-job experience?
You might not realize that all of the valuable skills you have gained through your education, recreational activities and volunteer experiences can help you promote yourself to employers. Though you may not have all the work experience listed on the job posting, employers may want to hire you! Instead of focusing on your lack of work history, try focusing on your transferable job skills.
Transferable skills are sets of abilities that are needed to do a broad range of jobs. You may have more career-related skills than you think. Things you do all of the time may be great transferable job skills. Do you have a positive attitude? Can you communicate effectively? You may already have many skills that employers find valuable.
Where do you get transferable job skills? You may ...]]></description>
