CHATIGNY, Céline    RIEL, Jessica. Student health and safety in a vocational training center: approaches, representations and gender. []. , 10, 2, pp.61-82. ISSN 1646-5237.  https://doi.org/10.15667/laborealx0214cc1.

The goal of this research was to study the health and safety issues at work in vocational training centers. 76 participants (managers, professionals, vocational trainers and students) went through a process of individual and collective interviews, self-administered questionnaires and observation. An analysis of documents on health and safety was also performed. This allowed us to study the experiences surrounding health and safety at work, prescriptions about activities, approaches, roles and factors affecting representations and learning. Students were mainly from Hairdressing (20) and Automated Systems Electromechanics (19) courses. The results show different representations depending on the group of actors. Some students were more worried about their health and safety at work than perceived. Health damage was more frequent for hairdressing students. There were also gender approaches on health and safety at work. The discussion focuses on research methods and approaches, HSW approaches, interventions resulting from the research and elements in need of further development.
