| Description: Risk Training for Fraser Valley Farmers. Fraser Valley farmers and agricultural employers are invited to a training session on identifying potentially dangerous confined spaces and their hazards led by the Farm and Ranch Safety and Health Association (FARSHA). Deaths and injuries in confined spaces are rare but can happen suddenly, often without warning that something is wrong. Working in and cleaning feed bins, milk tanks, ventilation systems, pump sheds, fermentation tanks, silos and manure ponds can expose workers to toxic gases and other hazards that may be present. In high enough concentrations, they can cause death in seconds in enclosed spaces. Since 2000, 18 workers have lost their lives in confined spaces in B.C. in a number of industries including agriculture. WorkSafeBC’s new confined spaces in agriculture on-line portal is a resource for employers and workers to identify and work safely in confined spaces on B.C. farms and ranches. WorkSafeBC developed resources with FARSHA for eight specific types of farm operations in eight languages that are available on-line or in booklet form. |
