    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.
