The 18th Annual Agriculture Safety Days (ASD) wrapped up online February 28, 2022. This event has evolved from the statewide safety conference, to specifically address the unique hazards faced by agriculture workers.
As in 2021 we were unable to gather in person due to the pandemic, but once again we prevailed at bringing people together in the safest way possible. Thank you to all of the essential agriculture workers who joined us online to check out the sessions.
A special shout out to our partners at the Washington Dep. Of Agriculture who to partnered with us provide up to 6 credits to over 100 pesticide handlers across the state.
A great big Thank You to our sponsors at the Yakima Worker Care Clinic, UW PNASH and the Washington Farm Bureau for your continued support of Agriculture Safety Days. These sponsors have allowed the Governor’s Industrial Safety & Health Advisory Board to continue offering these training online, and providing great prizes to attendees along the way.
We look forward to returning to live events with more sessions, networking opportunities and lots of fun prizes soon!
