Young Worker Readiness Certificate Course Transitioning to WorkSafe Saskatchewan

Effective September 2, 2025, the Young Worker Readiness Certificate Course (YWRCC) will be offered through a new online platform hosted by WorkSafe Saskatchewan.

WorkSafe Saskatchewan—a partnership between the Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board and the Ministry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety—aims to reduce workplace injuries and fatalities. Transitioning the YWRCC under this partnership will strengthen the program’s focus on workplace safety.

Key points for schools:

• Requirement remains the same: Youth ages 14–15 must complete the YWRCC before working in Saskatchewan.
  
  

• Course content unchanged: The program continues to prepare young people for their first jobs, covering basic employment rights, responsibilities, and workplace health and safety.
  
  

• Access timeline: Accounts created on the current saskatchewan.ca platform will remain available until September 30, 2025.
  
  

• Ongoing role of schools: The government values and encourages the continued support of schools in making this course accessible to students.
