Farmers urged to put safety first, as the fifth Farm Safety Week begins
The fifth Farm Safety Week, which is being run in Ireland by the Irish Farmers Association, began yesterday with an appeal from Agriculture Minister Michael Creed for continued awareness by all involved in the industry.
He said the initiative, along with others such as the recent HSA Farm Safety campaign, which focused on the safe use of tractors and machinery, are very important for increasing awareness of the unacceptable level of farm accidents that occur every year.
