Preview of the “Ground Level Slips, Trips and Falls” Tailgate Training sheet
The Northeast Ag Safety and Health Coalition is looking for farmers willing to field-test and evaluate their new set of “Tailgate Trainings” – short, simple, training sessions that a farm owner or manager can use with a small group of workers. The trainings are designed to be done with small groups, anywhere, and promote retention of material. Topics of the current “tailgate” training sheets include 1) Ground Level Slips, Trips, and Falls, 2) Cattle Handling, and 3) Tractor Side-Overturn.
If you are willing to participate, the Coalition requests that farmers or managers conduct one training session with workers using the provided “tailgate” training sheet. Once the training session is complete, you are asked to fill out a very brief (5 question) evaluation form and mail it back to the Coalition. All material and postage paid/self-addressed return envelopes will be provided (to return the evaluation form).
If you are interested, please email Kate Brown kbrown@njaes.rutgers.edu with the following information by October 1, 2021.
- Farm Name
- Mailing Address
- Requested training sheet(s) [see topics 1, 2, and 3 above]
Your time and participation in this project would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
