Personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential on vineyards, farms, and ranches to minimize worker exposure to chemical, physical, and biological hazards. This training covers the four main types of PPE—face/eye, respiratory, skin/body, and hearing protection—with practical guidance on selection, inspection, and use for agricultural workers.
Use cases
- When applying pesticides or handling hazardous chemicals in vineyard or field settings
- During tasks involving pruning, machinery operation, or activities that pose fall or hearing risks on the farm or ranch
- For compliance with agricultural safety regulations and protection against workplace injuries and disease transmission
Why it works
- Reduces risk of injuries from chemicals, falling objects, loud equipment, and infectious agents
- Ensures that PPE provides proper protection through correct fit, use, and maintenance
- Supports overall farm productivity and regulatory compliance by keeping workers safe and healthy
