what sort of environment is it? How old are the "young persons" and what work will they be undertaking?

You don't specify the age range that you are considering, but here are a few things to think about:
The young persons perception of risk
Potential temerity, causing them not to ask questions through embarrassment
The bravado that young people sometimes exhibit
Peer pressure
Lack of experience
Physical maturity (Manual Handling may be an issue)
Child protection (for under 16's - from both aspects)
Bullying
Levels of supervision
Age restrictions on certain equipment
Attention span
Training requirements
Size of person for the fit and suitability of PPE supplied
Just a few to be going on with, no doubt our colleagues will help with many more
