One of the available booklets |
Three new booklets (available in English, Spanish and French) aim to help youth stay safer on the farm. The booklets were developed by the National Children's Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety and cover more than 50 commonly performed tasks. Each guideline has warnings about common hazards, tips for important protective strategies and the roles adults play in ensuring a safe work environment.
Each booklet addresses a specific topic: farm equipment operation, working with animals, and gardening. The Children's Center also has a set of information sheets with safety guidelines for hired adolescent farm workers.
