SUMMARY:NFSHW26: CALM Conversations on Access to Lethal Means
DESCRIPTION:Summary: CALM Conversations on Access to Lethal Means is a suicide prevention training that encourages the safe storage of lethal means (firearms and medications) during a suicidal crisis. By temporarily putting time and distance between a suicidal person and highly lethal means\, a life may be saved. CALM: Counseling on Access to Lethal Means was originally created as a workshop designed for mental health professionals. \nConversations on Access to Lethal Means were developed for communities because everyone can benefit from this training. This training is not anti-gun or anti-drug and is designed to be a specific\, effective part of suicide prevention. \nIntended Audience: All communities with interest in suicide prevention \nPresenter: Noah Hopkins\, PhD\, Population Health Specialist\, AgriSafe Network \nObjectives: By the end of this session\, participants will be able to… \n\nIncrease their knowledge about suicide facts\nLearn how to inquire about the accessibility of lethal means\nLearn how to suggest safe storage\nAppraise results of lethal means reduction in countries outside the U.S.\nPractice their new skills through group discussion\n\n  \n Register Here  \n  \n Register for All 2026 NFSHW Webinars  \n  \n\nContinuing Education: The University of Cincinnati\, Department of Environmental and Public Health Sciences\, Education and Research Center offers 1.0 contact hours for this activity. Upon completing the evaluation\, learners will receive a certificate of completion. This course can meet continuing education requirements for a variety of professionals including: BGC criteria for IH/CIH professionals\, BCSP criteria for safety professionals\, CPH criteria for public health professionals. Please contact your accrediting agency regarding questions about receiving credits for this activity. \n\n  \nA special thank you to our NFSHW sponsors: \n\n\n\n\n        \n            \n                                \n                                        \n                        \n                        CHSUC DavisERC

SUMMARY:NFSHW26: Noise in Agriculture: An Overlooked Occupational Hazard
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Agricultural workers experience some of the highest rates of occupational noise exposure in the United States\, yet hearing conservation has received far less attention in agriculture than in other high-risk industries. This webinar will review current evidence on noise exposure and hearing loss among agricultural workers\, with a particular focus on field workers in the US Southwest\, an underserved and often overlooked population. Participants will learn about common sources of hazardous noise in agricultural settings\, challenges to implementing hearing protection programs\, and emerging research on culturally and contextually appropriate interventions. The presentation will also highlight findings from recent studies conducted among farmworkers in the U.S.–Mexico border region and discuss opportunities for improving hearing health through education\, policy\, and workplace-level prevention strategies. \nIntended Audience: Agricultural safety and health professionals\, occupational health practitioners\, farm owners and managers\, extension personnel\, agricultural educators\, community health workers\, researchers\, public health professionals\, clinicians\, policymakers\, and others interested in improving the health and safety of agricultural workers. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to… \n\nDescribe the prevalence and consequences of occupational noise exposure and hearing loss among agricultural workers.\nIdentify common sources of hazardous noise exposure in agricultural settings and factors that contribute to risk.\nRecognize barriers to hearing protection use and hearing conservation program implementation among farmworkers.\nDiscuss evidence-based strategies to prevent noise-induced hearing loss in agricultural workplaces.\nIdentify opportunities to integrate hearing health into existing agricultural safety and health initiatives.\n\nPresenter: Laura Coco\, PhD\, AuD Assistant Professor\, San Diego State University \n  \n Register Here  \n  \n Register for All 2026 NFSHW Webinars  \n  \n\nContinuing Education: The University of Cincinnati\, Department of Environmental and Public Health Sciences\, Education and Research Center offers 1.0 contact hours for this activity.

SUMMARY:NFSHW26: The Cost of Fatigue in Agriculture: Practical Solutions to Protect Workers and Increase Productivity
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Fatigue among agricultural workers is a significant yet underrecognized occupational health and safety hazard\, with important implications for injury risk\, productivity\, and long-term health outcomes. Agricultural workers are particularly vulnerable to fatigue due to a combination of factors\, including long work hours\, irregular schedules\, inadequate sleep duration and quality\, physically demanding tasks\, exposure to environmental stressors such as extreme heat and cold\, and ongoing mental stressors. This presentation will review the science of healthy (“good”) sleep and examine the relationships between fatigue and injury and fatality risks\, as well as acute and chronic health effects. It will also explore the economic burden of fatigue in agricultural settings. Finally\, practical mitigation and prevention strategies will be presented\, with a focus on interventions that can be implemented at the individual\, clinical\, and industry levels to reduce fatigue and improve worker health\, safety\, and productivity. \nIntended Audience: Agricultural producers\, workers\, managers\, healthcare providers\, and safety professionals \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to… \n\nUnderstand the causes and impact of worker fatigue by identifying common contributors\, including long work hours\, demanding schedules\, poor sleep quality\, sleep disorders\, and environmental or lifestyle factors.\nRecognize the consequences and warning signs of fatigue and describe how fatigue affects safety\, health\, decision-making\, productivity\, and team performance.\nUnderstand the science of sleep by exploring sleep quality\, sleep stages\, recovery\, cognitive function\, learning\, memory\, and factors that disrupt healthy sleep.\nIdentify and apply strategies to reduce fatigue risks through workplace solutions\, engineering controls\, and organizational approaches.\nAdopt healthy sleep and lifestyle practices using evidence-based strategies to improve rest\, safety\, and overall well-being.\nImprove workplace safety and productivity through effective fatigue recognition and management practices.\n\nPresenter: Ellen Duysen\, MPH\, COHC\, Research Assistant Professor\, University of Nebraska Medical Center\, College of Public Health\, Central States Center for Agricultural Safety and Health \n Register Here  \n  \n Register for All 2026 NFSHW Webinars  \n  \n\nContinuing Education: The University of Cincinnati\, Department of Environmental and Public Health Sciences\, Education and Research Center offers 1.0 contact hours for this activity.
