Farm fatalities have dropped by 13
Statistics just released by the Canada
Safety Council show that 107 Canadians
were killed on farms in 1985, down from 120
the previous year. Twenty-two percent were
among children under 15 years; twenty per-
cent were seniors 65 years and over. Two-
thirds of all fatal accidents involved the use
of agricultural machinery.
The reported number of time -lost injuries
for 1985 was 6,179, up from 5,935 in 1984. This
figure represents a mere fraction of all
agricultural injuries as it includes only
those workers covered under Workman's
Compensation Boards who received corn-'
pensation payments for their injuries. The
cost to the Canadian public was approx-
imately $30 -million. Of the reported cases,
65 percent resulted in one of three types of
injuries: sprains and strains (33 percent),
contusions (18 percent) and lacerations (14
percent) .
The Canada Safety Council, in co-
operation with Agriculture Canada and
•,
Provincial Safety Councils, sponsors Na-
tional Farm Safety Week each year from
July 25-31 in an effort to promote safer work
practices on Canadian farms. This year's
campaign draws attention to the value of us-
ing personal protective equipment to reduce
the frequency and severity of work-related
injuries and illnesses.
"The use of ear and eye protection,
gloves, safety boots, and respiratory equip-
ment is every bit as necessary in farming as
it is in other industries, but studies have
shown that a high percentage of farm
workers do not wear protective gear", says
Heather Kyle, Senior Public Safety Officer,
Canada Safety Council. "Unlike other in-
dustries, where its use is regulated and en-
forced, the farmer is largely on his own to
select, purchase and use the appropriate
equipment."
Where is it impossible or impractical to
control or eliminate a hazard, personal pro-
tective equipment is a major defense in the
prevention of work -place injuries. The
Canada Safety Council advises all farm
managers to ensure that each worker is pro-
perly fitted with protective equipment and
trained in its use and maintenance.
Personal protective equipment is impor-
tant for backyard gardeners as well, whose
jobs around the home and yard may also
present safety hazards. One should always
read product labels and instructions to find
out what degree and type of external protec-
tions is required.
Copies of the Council's "Selection Guide to
Personal Protective Equipment" are
available to farmers and gardeners from
the Canada Safety Council, 1765 St. Laurent
Blvd., Ottawa, Ontario K1G 3V4.
