farm safety
checklist
Though farming is a high-risk occupation, many hazards can be reduced. Use this checklist as a practical tool to help recognize existing risks, start conversations, and strengthen safety on the farm. If you answer “no” to a question, make a plan to fix it using the action page provided. Most questions apply to all farms, but cross out any that are not applicable to your operation.
To view the different pages of the safety checklist and the action plan, use the “up” and “down” arrows at the top of page.
