How will you farm if you are hurt? What if a family member or employee are injured? With 25 fatalities per 100,000 people, agriculture is the most hazardous occupation in the U.S., exceeding even mining or construction work. Any accident can result in a severe injury to you, a family member, or an employee.
You set the tone for safety expectations on the first day of work. Effective orientation training upon hire is the best way to establish good habits.
Some tasks like forklift or boom truck operation, working at heights, chemical safety, confined spaces, or equipment operation may require more specific training. Assess hazards and provide additional training if necessary.
Keep guards in place over PTO shafts, augers, belts, and other moving parts.
Don’t operate equipment with missing guards.
