In this course, you’ll learn common guarding methods in agriculture settings and best practices to manage your machine guarding safety program. This session covers: Fundamental machinery and equipment guarding principles Common guarding methods in agriculture Ways to identify missing or inadequate guarding

Employees have the “Right to Know” about the chemicals and materials used at work that can cause illness or injury. Employers must identify the hazards of chemicals used, communicate these hazards to employees, and make sure employees are protected. The Global Harmonization System (GHS) is an approach to classifying chemicals across regulatory agencies, to make it easier for employees to understand safety information on hazardous materials. This session covers: Overview of Hazard Communication and Global Harmonization System Components of a hazard communication program Roles and responsibilities Chemical inventory and the hazard evaluation processes Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and labels Training Program evaluation

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employee falls are one of the most common injuries in agriculture. Field terrain is by nature uneven and constantly changing. Because of this, many agriculture employers tend to accept employee fall incidents as an uncontrollable risk. However, most fall accidents in outdoor agriculture settings are preventable. Effective planning, hazard identification, and corrective action make the difference! This session covers: Contributing factors to agriculture employee fall injuries based on soil type Slip, trip and fall hazard identification for walking and working surfaces Fall prevention practices for various outdoor field terrain conditions
