A structured onboarding checklist for farm managers training new employees on the unique hazards and skills required in agricultural work. Covers general farm orientation, machinery and vehicle operation training, livestock handling techniques, chemical and pesticide safety, manual handling for farm tasks, emergency and first aid procedures, and the competency assessments that must be passed before unsupervised work.

Farming is consistently one of the most dangerous occupations — machinery entanglement, livestock injuries, chemical exposure, falls, and vehicle rollovers cause hundreds of deaths annually. New farm workers, unfamiliar with the environment, are at the highest risk. Thorough induction and documented competency assessment are essential before any unsupervised work.
