Did you know? 🤔 Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that the agricultural sector is still the most dangerous in America, with 573 fatalities, or an equivalent of 23.1 deaths per 100,000 workers. Fall harvest time can be one of the busiest and most dangerous seasons of the year for the agriculture industry, and it is approaching quickly! Because of this, the third week of September has been recognized as National Farm Safety and Health Week, an annual promotion initiated by the National Safety Council to help spread awareness of these statistics and ways to keep workers safe on the job. Learn about the daily topics of focus and more through the link. #AgriculturalSafety #FarmSafety #Safety #WorkerSafety
