Agriculture has a workplace injury rate almost four times higher than the UK all-industry average, accounting for around 19% of the reported fatal injuries each year.
With harvest season almost upon us many of our counties are putting on farm safety events to help you stay up to speed with all things safety during this year's harvest.
What can I expect?
The events will give you an opportunity to hear about transport safety and legislation, safe working around overhead lines, and trailer safety to name just a few topics.
These events can also provide an opportunity to engage with other members of the farming community and share ideas on ways to stay safe and compliant.
The events will give you an opportunity to hear about:
- transport safety and legislation
- safe working around overhead lines, trailer safety
- machinery safety
- chemical handling safety
- mental wellbeing
- livestock safety
- fire safety
- first aid
- workshop safety
