Dairy farms are dynamic, complex, and busy environments that offer great opportunities for work. Feeling safe and being safe greatly enhances workplace culture and productivity and significantly reduces business risk.

SAFER Farms is a workshop for dairy farm owners, managers and employees with the responsibility and decision-making capacity for farm safety improvement. The workshop will help you bring your Farm Safety Manual and compliance requirements together to form a Farm Safety System. By using practical applications of the SAFER system (See it, Assess it, Fix it, Evaluate it, Review it), the aim is to help you become more confident in managing farm safety and to assist in understanding what actions are needed to meet your health and safety compliance obligations.

The workshop is delivered by Di Gresham, an experienced dairy industry HR and Safety consultant.

Morning session: Reviewing the Farm Safety Manual and The SAFER system
