Ontario is proposing to lower the minimum age for lifeguards to 15.
“We know that our programs account for maturity and judgment, which is necessary to be a lifeguard,” she said in an interview.
Not every person, regardless of age, will necessarily start working right away as a lifeguard, but Bakalar said numbers of certifications are up, and allowing 15 year olds to work as lifeguards will be a “good step” toward addressing staff shortages..Last summer, as with so many other sectors, lifeguarding saw pandemic-induced staffing crunches.
The city says that while specific numbers for this year aren’t yet available, it has seen a “positive response to its diligent and sustained recruitment efforts over the past several months.”
