AgSafe, Coalition for Health and Safety in Agriculture

There are a total of twelve safety modules in the AgSafe Project. These are:

  • Safely Working Around Agricultural Machinery
  • Protective Clothing
  • Safely Handling Pesticides
  • Basic First Aid
  • Safely Working Around and With Electricity
  • Working Safely in the Farm/Ranch Shop
  • Back Injury Prevention
  • Defensive Driving
  • Preventing Slips and Trips
  • Proper Use of a Respirator
  • Safely Working With and Around Farm/Ranch Animals
  • Safely Working With and Around Tractors

Each of the twelve training modules includes an English language script, a Spanish language script, and a set of overheads/slides. The overheads may be printed on transparancy film in a laser printer, used as posters when printed on regular paper, or may be displayed as a "slide show" from the NASD CDROM. The overheads are not currently available from the WWW site.

The Safety modules are intended to be used as a supplement to an agricultural employer's basic safety training program and is in no way to be used as a substitute for a thorough job training.
