SUMMARY:NFSHW24: Grain Related Entrapments - Are We Focusing on the Right Problem?
DESCRIPTION:Summary: A review of the literature related to the problem of grain related entrapments and engulfments clearly suggests that the most effective response is to focus on rescuing workers once entrapped. The evidence shows that this approach is both inconsistent with the data and has generated little progress in reducing the frequency and severity of these incidents. After summarizing over 1\,200 of these incidents\, of which approximately 60% resulted in fatalities\, the findings clearly show that the problem is not entrapment due to the flowing grain\, but rather the documented presence of out-of-condition or spoiled grain that becomes a barrier to removal of grain from storage. Though not as popular as conducting a grain rescue class for emergency first responders\, enhancing the knowledge and skills of grain producers to maintain high quality grain will not only reduce entrapment incidents\, but will improve profitability for the producer. This webinar will address the well documented relationship between the presence of out-of-condition grain and the increased probability of grain-related entrapment. Methods for safe removal of out-of-condition grain will also be addressed. \nIntended Audience: Agricultural safety and health professionals\, emergency first responders\, agricultural workers\, grain storage and handling personnel \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to… \n\nIdentifythe most signifigant causes of grain-related entrapement including out-of-condition grain\nDiscuss the need to focus on preventative measures rather than emergency first response strategies \nExplain strategies for removing out-of-condition grain in a safe manner \n\nPresenter: Bill Field\, PhD\, Professor\, Purdue University\, Extension Safety Leader\, Purdue Cooperative Extension Service \n  \n Watch the Recording Here  \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:NFSHW24: Using a Novel App Prototype to Assess Heat Stress Risk Among Outdoor Workers
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) index is the preferred environmental heat metric for heat-related illness (HRI) prevention in the workplace and is typically measured using a heat stress monitor. Measuring the on-site WBGT with a heat stress monitor provides the most accurate localized assessment of a worker’s environmental heat exposure. However\, WBGT data may not always be easily accessible for worksite heat stress evaluation.  \nThe OSHA-NIOSH Heat Safety Tool\, a mobile app that provides current and forecasted heat index and its corresponding risk\, has been considered as an alternative tool for assessing environmental heat metrics in the workplace but was found to be inaccurate in assessing high and extreme heat stress risks at any workload type. Thus\, there is still a need for alternative WBGT-based tools\, such as well-designed mobile apps\, that are more accessible and cheaper for HRI prevention among outdoor workers. A novel web app prototype was developed at East Carolina University to calculate the current and forecasted WBGT index for a specific location as a promising tool for HRI prevention among outdoor workers\, but it has not been tested for accuracy. This course intends to explain the findings of a research study that assessed the reliability of a WBGT app prototype in providing accurate heat stress risk information for outdoor workers in eastern North Carolina.  \nIntended Audience: This course is intended for farmworkers and other outdoor workers\, farmers and other outdoor worker supervisors and managers\, and occupational health and safety professionals.  \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to… \n\nUnderstand the importance of using wet-bulb-globe temperature (WBGT) index as an environmental heat metric for heat stress exposure assessment \nUnderstand how a heat stress assessment mobile app estimates the outdoor WBGT index using weather data \nUnderstand the comparison and correlation between WBGT index measured by a heat stress monitor and WBGT index calculated by the WBGT app prototype \n\nPresenter: Jo Anne G.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Farm Equipment Hits the Highway: Growing Risks and Smarter Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Tractors and other large ag machines are spending more time on public roads than ever before. As farms expand and equipment grows in size\, the risks on rural roadways continue to rise\, not just for farmers but for the entire motoring public. This session will explore how design solutions\, especially those connected to lighting and marking design standards\, reduce collision risk. We’ll unpack crash data\, examine discrepancies between federal and state requirements\, and highlight recent NHTSA regulations that focus national attention on these issues. We’ll also explore new risks associated with trailering\, longer transport routes\, and the safety implications of the accelerating shift toward autonomous and robotic machinery. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n Describe how changes in farm size\, equipment design\, and changes in rural communities contribute to increased roadway travel and higher collision risk. \n Explain the purpose and impact of consensus design standards and how alignment (or misalignment) with state regulations can influence roadway safety outcomes. \n Identify new roadway safety concerns tied to equipment trailering\, larger machines\, and longer travel distances across spread-out farm operations. \n Assess how automation and robotics in agriculture will introduce both new risks and promising safety solutions—and how policy\, like California’s current occupational safety tractor rules\, will shape their future use. \nIntended audience: Farmers\, policymakers\, extension educators\, engineers from equipment companies\, law enforcement\, clinicians\, health professionals\, agricultural association leaders\, agribusiness professionals\, insurance loss control/underwriters\, vo-ag instructors\, machinery dealers \nMeet the Presenter: Dr. John Shutske\, Agricultural Safety & Health Specialist and Professor\, University of Wisconsin-Madison \n Watch the Recording  \nTo register for this training\, you must have a free account in the AgriSafe Learning Lab.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Wheels of Misfortune: Off-Road Vehicles on Public Roadways
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Off-road vehicles\, including all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and utility task vehicles (UTVs) are extremely popular and a common source of injury and death in rural areas\, especially farms and ranches. While the use of ATVs/UTVs on public roadways increases the likelihood of a crash with another vehicle\, the majority of roadway deaths and an even higher proportion of injuries on public roads are single ATV/UTV crashes not involving another motor vehicle. \nATVs/UTVs are designed for off-road use only\, and manufacturers have strongly stated that they should not be operated on public roadways. In fact\, the majority of deaths associated with these vehicles occur on public roads. Despite this\, an increasing number of states\, counties\, and municipalities across the country are passing laws allowing ATVs/UTVs to operate on public roadways for transportation and recreational purposes. During this presentation\, we will discuss the safety issues surrounding ATVs/UTVs on public roads and\, in particular\, the design elements of ATVs/UTVs that place their operators at greater risk on public roads. We will discuss how rural families can help protect themselves\, their families\, and employees from ATV/UTV-related crashes and injury. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n List at least three design features of ATVs and UTVs that contribute to crashes and subsequent injury\, and be able to discuss how these features make ATVs/UTVs vulnerable to problems on both paved and unpaved roads. \n Identify at least three other factors that contribute to ATV/UTV-related crashes and injuries\, and how they might decrease the risk to themselves\, their families\, and employees. \n Understand and appreciate ATV/UTV safety messages they might share with others\, and how they could be effective advocates for informed safety legislation regarding ATVs/UTVs. \nIntended audience: Farmers\, ranchers\, parents\, agriculture production workers\, healthcare providers\, emergency medical services\, public health officials\, government and legislative leaders\, administrators \nMeet the Presenter: Charles Jennissen\, MD\, Clinical Professor and Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician\, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine \n Watch the Recording  \nTo register for this training\, you must have a free account in the AgriSafe Learning Lab.
