Farm And Ranch Safety Management - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

You can?t afford even one accident! Careful planning can help avoid tragic - and costly - accidents. Why do you need this book? The answer is simple: agriculture is a hazardous industry. Farming and ranching can be uniquely rewarding occupations, but if you don?t follow safe work practices they can be dangerous. According to the National Safety Council (NSC),there were an estimated 1,200 agricultural work-related deaths and 140,000 disabling work-related injuries in the United States in 1992. But you already knew farming and ranching are filled with danger. What you maybe do not know so well is what you can do about it. This book will tell you. We will tell and show you 21 ways to avoid the No. 1 fatal farm accident...and that?s just for starters. We show you very practical ways to avoid pinch points; wrapping, shearing, crushing, and pull-in hazards; thrown objects and freewheeling parts; electrical and stored energy; and much, much more. Farm and Ranch Safety Management is the definitive reference work in rural safety. This 358-page book is filled with EPA, OSHA, and other regulatory agency standards and suggested ways to meet or exceed those standards. Topics covered in simple, straightforward language include safety machine operation, handling toxic chemicals, hazardous waste disposal, and developing an overall safety management plan.
