Imsil-gun Conducts 'Agricultural Work Accident Prevention and Safety Health Education'

[Imsil=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk (Governor Shim Min) announced on the 18th that it recently conducted safety and health education for the prevention of agricultural work accidents in the second half of the year, targeting about 400 farmers over 23 sessions at eup/myeon offices and village halls.

This education was prepared to protect the safety and health of farmers from accidents that may occur during agricultural work, such as falls that can happen to female and elderly farmers, tick-borne infectious diseases, musculoskeletal disorders, and agricultural machinery accidents.

In June, a similar agricultural work accident prevention education was held in seven eup/myeon village pavilions with 200 farmers participating, including instructions and demonstrations on the use of agricultural work protective gear and creating a safe agricultural work environment in the first half of the year.

Protective equipment including four types such as tick repellents and agricultural work chairs to prevent musculoskeletal disorders, as well as safety reflectors to prevent collisions with agricultural machinery, were distributed to the participating farmers.

Governor Shim Min said, “I hope that the safety awareness of farmers will improve through agricultural work accident prevention and safety and health education,” and added, “We will continue to provide support so that safe and healthy agricultural work can be practiced.”
