Agriculture Production A10, B10, A20, B20, A30, B30

Note: Teachers should determine student familiarity with general workplace safety. This will help determine if they require a review of concepts or more in-depth learning.

Outcome

Apply principles and techniques for injury prevention to ensure safety in agriculture production.

Indicators

(a)	Perform basic safety procedures (e.g., storage and maintenance of tools, clean workspace, working at high heights and working around large equipment) as they apply to an agriculture production operation.
(b)	Develop a list of rules for workplace safety including proper personal protective equipment (PPE), sanitation, neat and tidy work area and reporting workplace accidents and safety incidents
(c)	Demonstrate the utilization and maintenance of protective devices on equipment.
(d)	Demonstrate regular tool inspection and tag out procedures for repair of common tools used during agricultural production.
(e)	Describe risks associated with above ground powerlines.
(f)	Describe risks associated with buried underground services (e.g., SaskPower, SaskEnergy, SaskTel and oil transmission lines).
(g)	Demonstrate the use of common agricultural production PPE according to the manufacturer's requirements.
(h)	Develop a basic Farm Safety Plan that includes: why safety is an important part of the agricultural production business; a frequency for inspections of tools and equipment; requirements for reporting incidents to a supervisor; requirements for use and care of Personal Protective Equipment; requirements for minimum training of workers; how hazards will be identified; how hazards will be controlled; and, an emergency response plan.
