Description
Health and safety is stereotypically a bit boring. Like with legislation it’s one of those topics that just comes with a bit of a yawn and a sigh, but with continued and rising concern over the high level of accidents within the agricultural industry it’s important that we, at BASIS, do what we can to support our members safety.
This month’s episode has been released early to show our support for the Yellow Wellies campaign; Farm Safety Week.
We know our BASIS members will often find themselves working on or near farm yards, working alone in fields, clambering over gates and fences and playing with soil so making sure that we are all aware of our surroundings, looking out for ourselves and others should be a top priority.
We are privileged to have been joined by 5 speakers keen to share their top tips for staying safe on farm:
Stephanie Berkely, Manager at the Farm Safety Foundation aka Yellow Wellies
Tom Price, Farm Safety and Transport Adviser at the NFU
Christopher Maher, HM Inspector HSE
Eve Macready Jones, HM Inspector HSE
Stephen Britton, HM Inspector HSE
Our speakers take us through some of the top risks our BASIS members are likely to come across and how they can help themselves and others to stay safe.
Please listen through to the end of the podcast to find out how to collect a CPD point for listening.
