Preventive Measures
To ensure good safety and health standards, a systematic examination of all aspects of the
work has to be undertaken to identify what could cause injury or harm and whether the hazards can
be eliminated; and if not, what preventive or protective measures need to be done in order to control
the risks. In general, below are some preventive measures that the farm worker can employ:
1. Try to eliminate risks. If risks cannot be completely eliminated, try to minimize them by following
safe work procedures.
2. Follow safe work procedures (for instance, turn off the tractor or switch off and lock off the
machine before any intervention).
3. Use appropriate equipment, including personal protective equipment.
4. Never do a job you are not competent to do.
ACTIVITY: In each item, identify the activity which is not part of preventive measures in doing a
specific farm activity. Choose the letter of the correct answer.
