SUMMARY:Webinar: Anhydrous Ammonia Safety for Farmworkers
DESCRIPTION:Anhydrous Ammonia Safety for Farmworkers\nSummary: Anhydrous ammonia (NH3) is an effective nitrogen crop fertilizer used throughout the Midwest and beyond.  Anhydrous ammonia is potentially dangerous\, as it seeks water from the nearest source\, which may be the human body – especially the eyes\, lungs\, and skin because of their high moisture content.  Few problems occur when anhydrous ammonia is handled properly and applied as intended.  However\, it is important for all individuals working with this type of fertilizer to understand the potential health risks\, necessary safety precautions\, and proper response in the event of exposure. \nPersonal protective equipment (PPE) is one of the last lines of defense for workers against Anhydrous Ammonia injuries. Women in all industries\, including agriculture\, have trouble finding and purchasing respiratory protective equipment that fits and is safe and 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 this 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. \nObjectives: At the conclusion of the program\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the anatomy of a nurse tank and toolbar\nChoose appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)\nMake use of a safety inspection process\nDescribe safety measures to follow during anhydrous transport and application\nApply rural roadway safety measures\nDescribe hitching and unhitching safety\nPlan and utilize basic first aid/emergency procedures\nLocate hazard communication plan and emergency action plan resources\n\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. \n Watch the Recording Here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Appropriate PPE for Women in Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Agriculture is a hazardous industry associated with many occupational injuries and diseases. Workers may be exposed to various types of occupational hazards simultaneously\, possibly increasing the risk of adverse health outcomes. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for ensuring a safe working environment in agriculture. It is essential to utilize PPE that meets safety standards\, is appropriate for your work\, and is the proper fit. PPE is often designed with men in mind\, making adequate fit and function problematic for women in agriculture. \nThis training will address the different hazards in agricultural work and the appropriate PPE for women. Additionally\, this training will review how to conduct both a respirator fit test and a fit check (seal check) procedure. This presentation aims to guide the selection and effectiveness of PPE worn by women in the agricultural field. \nIntended Audience: Producers – This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers\, including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, poultry\, or other livestock. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor. It does not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the U.S. Department of Labor\, nor does mention of trade names\, commercial products\, or organizations imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. \n Watch the Recording Here  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar: ATV-UTV Safety for Women
DESCRIPTION:ATV-UTV Safety for Women\nSummary: Agriculture ranks among the most hazardous industries. Farmers are at very high risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries\, and farming is one of few industries in which family members (who often share the work and live on the premises) are also at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries. ATVs and UTVs are found on all types of farms; they are useful for agricultural work\, but they also pose serious hazards to operators and passengers. Studies indicate that injured ATV/UTV passengers are more commonly female and youth and that helmet use is significantly lower for passengers. The focus of the training would be on ATV/UTV maintenance and safety features\, personal protective equipment (PPE)\, load and weight considerations\, operation on public roadways\, as well as employee training and considerations for working alone. \nIntended Audience: Producers- This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers\, including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, poultry\, or other livestock. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor. It does not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the U.S. Department of Labor\, nor does mention of trade names\, commercial products\, or organizations imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. \n Watch Now

SUMMARY:Webinar: ATV-UTV Safety for Women
DESCRIPTION:ATV-UTV Safety for Women\nSummary: Agriculture ranks among the most hazardous industries. Farmers are at very high risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries\, and farming is one of few industries in which family members (who often share the work and live on the premises) are also at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries. ATVs and UTVs are found on all types of farms; they are useful for agricultural work\, but they also pose serious hazards to operators and passengers. Studies indicate that injured ATV/UTV passengers are more commonly female and youth and that helmet use is significantly lower for passengers. The focus of the training would be on ATV/UTV maintenance and safety features\, personal protective equipment (PPE)\, load and weight considerations\, operation on public roadways\, as well as employee training and considerations for working alone. \nIntended Audience: Producers- This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers\, including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, poultry\, or other livestock. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor. It does not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the U.S. Department of Labor\, nor does mention of trade names\, commercial products\, or organizations imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. \n Watch Now

SUMMARY:Webinar: Appropriate PPE for Women in Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Agriculture is a hazardous industry associated with many occupational injuries and diseases. Workers may be exposed to various types of occupational hazards simultaneously\, possibly increasing the risk of adverse health outcomes. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for ensuring a safe working environment in agriculture. It is essential to utilize PPE that meets safety standards\, is appropriate for your work\, and is the proper fit. PPE is often designed with men in mind\, making adequate fit and function problematic for women in agriculture. \nThis training will address the different hazards in agricultural work and the appropriate PPE for women. Additionally\, this training will review how to conduct both a respirator fit test and a fit check (seal check) procedure. This presentation aims to guide the selection and effectiveness of PPE worn by women in the agricultural field. \nIntended Audience: Producers – This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers\, including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, poultry\, or other livestock. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Women and Heat Stress
DESCRIPTION:Summary: People who work outdoors are more likely to become dehydrated and experience heat-related illness or heat stress. Although illness from exposure to heat is preventable\, thousands become sick from occupational heat exposure every year\, and some cases are fatal. Agriculture is an industry where workers have suffered heat-related illnesses. Specific groups within the agricultural community\, including pregnant women\, older workers\, and young children\, could have elevated risks related to prolonged heat and humidity exposure. However\, with proper information and preventative action\, heat-related illness can be avoided for all populations in the agricultural community. \nThis training will identify the warning signs of heat-related illness and discuss prevention strategies\, including protective clothing and equipment to protect agricultural workers from the risks associated with prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-37171-SH1 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.

SUMMARY:Webinar:  Implementing Community-Led Interventions with Gulf Coast Seafood Workers
DESCRIPTION:Summary: The University of Texas Medical Branch conducted semi-structured interviews and observations with Gulf Coast shrimp fishermen to understand their healthcare experiences and needs as well as policies that are impacting their health. Community-based participatory research (CBPR)\, a relational model that values the participants as equal partners in research\, dissemination\, and implementation\, guided the interviews. To address the lack of healthcare options for (im)migrants\, and at the request of the seafood workers participating in the ongoing CBPR study\, we successfully implemented and treated workers through a free mobile clinic. Many of these individuals had not been seen by a healthcare provider in years\, highlighting the importance of community trust and rapport building when addressing interconnected health and safety issues. CBPR\, when applied to high-risk occupational settings with underreached populations (e.g.\, (im)migrant workers)\, can improve health and prevent injury. \nObjectives: At the end of this presentation\, participants will be able to…\n– Describe the healthcare experiences and needs of (im)migrant seafood workers\n– Describe the principles of CBPR and how it can be applied to total worker health research\n– Discuss the difficulties of CBPR and ways to ensure the community is equitably engaged in all aspects of research-to-practice partnerships \nIntended Audience: Researchers\, Practitioners\, or Policymakers \n Watch Now  \n\nContinuing Education:\nThe Midwest Center for Occupational Health and Safety offers 0.10 CEU or 1.0 contact hour/s of participation. This course is eligible for 1.0 CPH Recertification Credits and is sponsored by the University of Minnesota School of Public Health\, an approved provider of CPH Recertification Credits by the National Board of Public Health Examiners. The following groups of professionals have been able to use these CEUs in the past; Industrial Hygiene (CIH)\, Certified Public Health Professional(CPH)\, Certified Safety Professional (CSP)\, Nursing (RN\, LPN)\, Social Work (LSW)\, Occupational Therapy (OT)\, Physical Therapy (PT)\, Audiology (ABA)\, and others.

SUMMARY:Webinar: More than Milk: Strong Bones and Injury Prevention for Aging Women in Ag
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Do farmers or ranchers really retire? Generational family operations frequently include the aging parents\, the living legends of agriculture. Farmers and ranchers self-identify good health with the ability to work. The normal aging process slows down one’s ability to engage in meaningful activities physically and mentally\, essentially to continue working. Swirl in the postmenopausal issues incurred by the female farmer\, and a myriad of health hazards arise. \nUnlike men\, who experience a gradual loss of bone mass as they age\, women will lose over 30% of their bone mass in the first five years after menopause. Agriculture is a hazardous and uncertain profession. Women are working well past the age of menopause. Training measures should focus on avoiding common risk factors and preventative actions to decrease the likelihood of an injury. Workplace and home safety are achievable. We will also address other age-related changes such as vision\, hearing\, and sleep disturbance. Every member of the family operation will benefit from learning creative strategies and solutions to help the aging in-place seniors achieve wellness and self-fulfillment.\n \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-37171-SH1 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.

According to the World Health Organization\, more than half of all human pathogens are zoonotic and have represented nearly all emerging pathogens during the past decade. Farmers and farmworkers have higher levels of risk for contracting zoonotic diseases because of the frequency of their exposure to animals. Prevention is the best defense. 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. Producers: This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, horticulture\, or other livestock. \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.
