Study Notes
Dangerous Agricultural Occupations
- Welders, loggers, electricians, livestock producers, farm equipment operators, lab assistants, and landscapers face significant hazards in their work.
Causes of Danger in Agriculture
- Equipment used is often large, loud, and contains many moving parts.
- Workers may handle electricity, hot metal, and power tools.
- Interaction with potentially aggressive animals can pose risks.
- Chemicals in various forms (liquid, dust, granular) are frequently utilized.
- Work environments can be noisy, dusty, hot, and slippery.
- Isolation during work can hinder immediate access to emergency services.
Definitions
- Hazard: A potential source of danger.
- Accident: An unexpected and unintentional incident, often resulting in damage or injury.
Common Hazardous Locations
- Ag Shop: Risks include power tools, sharp edges, loud equipment, and chemical exposure.
- Greenhouse: Hazards include water and electricity, slippery surfaces, and chemicals.
- Lab Stations: Involve dangers from chemicals, glassware, open flames, and fumes.
- Animal Science Facilities: Potential dangers include large animals, chemicals, and heavy equipment.
- Forestry Plot: Risks from insects, snakes, poisonous plants, and tripping hazards.
Safety Practices
- Protect vital functions like sight, hearing, and the use of extremities.
- Develop a healthy respect for dangers by understanding them, rather than fearing them.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Appropriate gear includes safety glasses, hearing protection, lab coats, gloves, hard hats, respirators, welding helmets, steel-toed boots, and spray suits.
Safety Equipment Awareness
- Know the location and operation of safety equipment like fire extinguishers, first-aid kits, eye wash stations, and safety showers.
Protective Devices on Equipment
- Utilize guards, safety (kill) switches, and safety color coding to minimize accidents.
Safety Color Coding
- Red signifies danger, orange indicates warning, yellow stands for caution, and green represents safety.
Guidelines for Safe Practices
- Wear proper attire, keeping loose clothing away from equipment; tie back long hair.
- Only use tools and equipment with explicit instruction and permission.
- Maintain guards and safety features while using power tools and only use tools for intended purposes.
- Keep workspaces organized and clear of hazards.
- Never operate damaged or malfunctioning equipment and avoid distractions to those operating machinery.
- Always turn off equipment power before making adjustments and verify chemicals before use.
Lab Conduct Rules
- Adhere to strict safety protocol including wearing approved eye protection, prohibiting food/drink, and ensuring equipment guards remain in place during use.
- Ensure floors are clean and tools are replaced in their designated spots. Avoid running, horseplay, and throwing in the lab.
