Farmers and farmworkers have higher levels of risk for contracting zoonotic diseases because of the frequency of their exposure to animals. Understanding how the disease transmission process works\, building a team\, and effectively communicating within that team is essential in preventing the spread of zoonotic disease. Women working in agriculture should be aware of the following special considerations during pregnancy\, which animals are common carriers of zoonotic disease\, symptoms of the disease(s)\, prevention measures\, and pregnancy risks. \nIntended Audience: Supervisor or Managers: This training is intended primarily for health and safety professionals including but not limited to owner/operators\, safety officers or specialists\, managers\, supervisors\, safety coordinators\, health safety and environmental interns\, and any person or persons who serve as safety personnel in an agricultural setting. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to…\n1. Define zoonotic disease and identify various modes of transmission\n2. Identify a minimum of four significant zoonotic diseases affecting the production agricultural population\n3.

Women in all industries\, including agriculture\, have trouble finding and purchasing respiratory protective equipment that fits and is safe/comfortable to wear. The National Safety Council\, in a 2019 publication of Safety and Health\, reported OSHA documentation indicating the lack of a full range of PPE\, as well as\, employers’ limited knowledge of PPE designed for women – as some of the reasons for the difficulty.  The focus of the training is on anhydrous ammonia safety during transport and application\, including the anatomy of the nurse tank and toolbar\, safety inspection processes\, hitching\, and unhitching safety\, personal protective equipment (PPE)\, rural roadway safety\, and first aid/emergency procedures.  Hazard communication and emergency action plans will also be addressed. \nIntended Audience: Farm/Ranch owners and operators\, health and safety professionals\, safety officers or specialists\, managers\, supervisors\, safety coordinators\, health safety and environmental interns\, and any person or persons who serve as safety personnel in an agricultural setting. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to…\n1. Choose appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)\n2. Make use of a safety inspection process\n3. Describe safety measures to follow during anhydrous transport and application\n4.

Additionally\, noise exposure impacts multiple organ systems\, contributing to cardiovascular disease\, hypertension\, obesity\, and other highly prevalent diseases. Although the effects of noise can be mitigated through use of hearing protection and other strategies\, these methods are highly underused in this worker group. Nurses in a variety of clinical settings who provide care for farm operators and farm youth are in a unique position to influence the noise mitigation behaviors of this high-risk and underserved group. In this webinar designed for nurses caring for workers in production agriculture\, learners will discuss methods of assessing worker exposure to hazardous noise\, and evidence-based nursing approaches to protect workers from the negative effects of noise on hearing and worker well-being. \nAt the end of the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nDiscuss several risk factors for noise-induced health problems common among farmers.\nDescribe major features of interventions shown to be effective in influencing farmers’ use of hearing protection.\nDiscuss best practices for clinical application of farm noise mitigation effectiveness research.\n\n  \n This training has expired.

This training will assist agriculture-based employers who require respirator use to comply with the OSHA respiratory protection program standard. Training includes written worksite specific procedures\, program evaluation\, selection of an appropriate respirator approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)\, training\, fit testing\, inspection\, cleaning\, maintenance\, and storage\, medical evaluation\, work area surveillance and air quality standards. \nAt the end of the presentation\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognize the diverse respiratory hazards unique to agricultural and the justification for a comprehensive respiratory program.\nIdentify the OSHA respirator standards that apply to an agricultural setting.\nUnderstand key components of an effective respiratory protection program.\nLearn how to access resources\, templates\, medical evaluations\, and further trainings to effectively implement a respiratory program.\n\n  \n\n\nRegistration Instructions: \n\n\n\nIf you don’t already have a profile with AgriSafe\, please set up a free account.
