APPLY APPROPRIATE SAFETY MEASURES WHILE WORKING IN THE FARM

INTRODUCTION:

Many hazards are present on the farm. If the farmers are not aware of these hazards

these may cause injury to their body or may cause diseases and even death. Farmer should

always apply appropriate safety measures while working on the farm. In this lesson, the

students with the guidance and supervision of their teacher should identify farm works that

involve the use of chemicals and hazardous tools and equipment; determine the uses of

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and determine farm emergency procedures regarding

safety working environment.

HAZARD, RISK, AND EXPOSURE IN THE FARM

Agricultural crop production deals with a lot of activities to be done in different

workplaces. While performing these activities we expose ourselves to a lot of risks. Workplace

hazard is a major cause of accident, injury, or harm to a worker who performs such a task.

These hazards should be the major concern of all who are involved in a certain job or work.

It is important to distinguish hazard, risk, and exposure when undertaking risk

management.

Hazard is the potential for harm or adverse effect on an employee‘s health. Anything

which may cause injury or ill health to anyone at or near a workplace is a hazard.

Risk is the likelihood that a hazard will cause injury or ill health to anyone at or near a

workplace. The level of risk increases with the severity of the hazard and the duration

and frequency of exposure.

Exposure occurs when a person comes into contact with a hazard.

Classes of Hazard

Hazards are classified into five different types. They are:

Physical - includes floors, stairs, work platforms, steps, ladders, fire, falling objects,

slippery surfaces, manual handling (lifting, pushing, pulling), excessively loud and

prolonged noise, vibration, heat and cold, radiation, poor lighting, ventilation, air quality

Mechanical and/or electrical - includes electricity, machinery, equipment, pressure

vessels, dangerous goods, forklifts, cranes, hoists

Chemical - includes chemical substances such as acids or poisons and those that

could lead to fire or explosion, like pesticides, herbicides, cleaning agents, clouds of

dust and fumes from various processes such as welding

Biological - includes bacteria, viruses, mold, mildew, insects, vermin, animals

Psychosocial environment - includes workplace stressors arising from a variety of

sources

Farm Emergency Procedures Regarding Safety Working Environment

1. Identify potential emergencies. The emergencies that may occur on a crop production

farm could include:

Fire Flood Typhoon Insect bite Chemical Exposure

Farm Injuries Machinery Electrical Shock Farm Illness Farm Accidents

Entrapment

2. Provide emergency facilities appropriate for the sorts of emergencies that might occur on

the farm (e.g. deluge showers, eyewashes, fire fighting equipment, first aid kits).

3. Make sure that the correct equipment is available to contain and handle any chemical or

other dangerous materials spills that might happen.

4. To help minimize the risk of personal injury or property damage in the event of an

emergency, people working on and visiting the farm need to know and understand the

emergency procedures and their responsibilities.

5. Instruct everyone working on the farm in the emergency response procedures

6. Everyone should know the location of fire alarms, fire extinguishers, and first aid kits; how

and where to contact emergency services; and where to safely assemble in the event of an

emergency.

The following factors may increase the risk of injury or illness for farmworkers:

Disclaimer: The contents with pictures above are borrowed from the online sources. Department of Education does not claim or own the

presented contents with pictures. Links for the sources are found in the reference part of the module.

1. Age – Injury rates are highest among children age 15 and

under and adults over 65.

2. Equipment and Machinery – Most farm accidents and

fatalities involve machinery. Proper machine guarding and

doing equipment maintenance according to manufacturers‘

recommendations can help prevent accidents.

FARM WORKS THAT INVOLVE USING CHEMICALS AND HAZARDOUS TOOLS

AND EQUIPMENT

1. Spraying Chemicals

Many different chemicals are used on a farm including pesticides. These chemicals are

used to fertilize and control pests such as insects, weeds, mollusks, etc. Most of these

chemicals are applied by spraying.

Examples of chemical hazards:

Spraying in a strong wind and the spray drifting over a dam or the farmhouse.

Washing spray equipment and the water running into open drains, collecting in

puddles, or running into stockyards or dams.

Containers or chemicals left lying around. Empty containers lying in a heap.

Some ways you can reduce the risk of hazards from chemicals are:

Use personal protective equipment such as respirators, waterproof clothes, rubber

gloves, and waterproof footwear.

Make sure chemicals are safely stored and cupboards locked.

Never spray chemicals on days when there is a high wind.

Know first aid procedures.

Keep a list of all hazardous substances used on the farm.

Safe use of chemicals

Consider if a chemical substance is really needed.

Eliminate a hazardous substance, or if that is not possible, substitute it with less

hazardous one.

Safe work practices or personal protective equipment should be used

Keep records of farm chemicals.

2. Land Preparation Using Tractor

Victims fall off or are thrown from the tractor

Run over by either the tractor or an implement being towed, or both.

Overturn

Safety Reminders:

Tractors are not passenger vehicles.

Use seat belts when driving tractors.

ROPS will protect the operator from serious injuries.

Causes of run-over accidents:

Sudden stops

Driving over holes, stumps, and debris, or a sharp turn

How to prevent run over:

Never allow riders on tractors.

Discuss with family members and farm workers the potential risks of riding tractor.

It's also helpful to post 'no riders' decals on all tractors to remind others about the

policy.

Use or provide other vehicles that allow passengers, such as trucks or cars, when

transportation is needed to fields or remote work sites.

3. Cutting Trees Using Chainsaws

A chainsaw makes light work of felling and cutting up trees but treat it with respect! A chainsaw

can easily slice through muscle or bone if it kicks back towards you. It's essential to get training

from a qualified person before you use a chainsaw.

Examples of chainsaw hazards:

Chainsaw kickback, caused when the upper part of the bar nose contacts a solid object

or is pinched. This throws the guide bar back towards you and can cause serious injury.

Using a small saw and bar to fell a big tree.

Felling large shelterbelt trees, or trees with a heavy lean or on steep slopes.

Felling trees with stem rot or a species prone to splitting.

Some ways you can reduce the risk of hazards from chainsaws are:

Know your saw and how to use the safety devices.

Wear and use the correct personal safety equipment. You need FOOTWEAR - boots

with steel toe caps. LEG PROTECTION - chainsaw operator's safety trousers or

chaps. SAFETY HELMET. EARMUFFS rated Grade 4 EYE PROTECTION - goggles

in dusty conditions or a helmet visor if there's a danger of flying debris.

Check the work area for hazards such as branches or tree tops that could fall.

Check that your saw is in good order and adjusted to the manufacturer's specifications.

Do not over-reach or cut above shoulder height

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Personal protective equipment (PPE) can reduce the number and severity of farm work-related

injuries and illnesses. Personal protective equipment not only helps protect people but also

improves productivity and profits. Farmers and ranchers can share in these benefits by using

the appropriate protective equipment for themselves, family members, and employees when

the job and its potential hazards call for it.

Protect your head with a hard hat when performing construction work,

trimming trees, repairing machinery, and doing other jobs with head injury

risks.

Use a sun safety hat (one with a wide brim and neck protection) to assist

in the prevention of skin cancer.

Protect your vision with appropriate safety eyewear (safety glasses,

goggles, face-shields) when applying pesticides, fertilizers, working in the

shop, or heavy dust conditions.

Protect your hearing with acoustic earmuffs or plugs when operating noisy

equipment such as grain dryers, feed grinders, older tractors, chain saws,

etc.

Protect your lungs with the correct respiratory equipment (dust masks,

cartridge respirators, gas masks, air packs) when working in dusty or

moldy conditions, spray painting, applying chemicals, working in bins,

tanks, silos, and manure storage places.

.

Protecting your hands while working is of the utmost importance, especially

as it enables you to continue to work rather than being prevented by an

injury. Farming gloves ensure the safety of your body while working in

outside and dangerous environment. Wearing farming gloves will help to

protect your hands and fingers.

Protecting the body with the proper clothing can help prevent injuries or

lessen any that occur. When selecting clothing to wear to work, wear

nothing that dangles, is untucked, or tattered. These can get caught and

possibly draw you into the machine. Wearing jackets will protect your skin

from the direct sunlight that may cause sunburn/skin cancer.

Long pants are a must on the farm because farmer's legs need protection

from scratchy bales of hay and straw, when walking through weeds or

growing crops, and my exceptionally pale husband said pants protect his

legs from sunburn.

When it comes to farming, waterproof boots are a necessity. “The most

reliable waterproof work boots on today's market feature waterproof

leather combined with a waterproof membrane lining within the boot
