Farms are one of our most dangerous workplaces. While some farm risks are obvious, some are not. This quick farm safety checklist will help identify how safe your farm is, and what you can do to reduce or eliminate risks. This document tells you:
what the law says about safe workplaces
your responsibilities around managing risks on your farm
how to rate risks on your farm
how to prioritise and address the highest risk activities
You will also find a checklist to help you identify, prioritise and address risks and hazards on your farm.
