National Farm
Safety Week
is proclaimed
President Ronald Reagan has
proclaimed Sept. 16-22 as National
Farm Safety Week and Don Brock,
president of Peach County Farm
Bureau say? emphasis is being placed
on the need to make prevention of
accidents and work-related illness a
management goal.
"A farm management program that
ignores safety is just asking for
trouble,” Brock stated. “Farming is a
high-risk business when it comes to
accidental deaths and injuries.”
Although agricultural work death
rates have declined in the past 10
years, the Farm Bureau president said
there is still room for improvement. He
cited National Safety Council prelimi¬
nary estimates that show agriculture
work-related accidents caused about
1,900 deaths and 190,000 disabling
injuries during 1983.
"Some of the reasons for those
figures are that farmers work long,
hard hours and make mistakes when
they get too tired; we don't always use
personal protective equipment; we
don’t live in town and can’t always get
to a doctor as quickly as we need to;
and some erf" our workers may not be as
well-trained to operate machinery as
they should be,” Brock explained.
Another factor, he said, is that often
family members under 16 and over 65
work on the farm.
“We farmers need to take
responsibility for ourselves, our
families and others working on the
farm and make sure that everybody
knows how to do a job safely. Those
big tractors and combines you see on
farms are dangerous machines if you
don’t know what you’re doing. We just
need to think of safety as a
management tool and use it,” Brock
concluded.
