Farm safety

Everyone home safe tonight

Farming is about 4% of Ireland's workforce but around 40% of workplace deaths. Vehicles, livestock and falls are the main causes. A few minutes now can save a life.

Farm Safety WeekEvery July · 2027 dates to be confirmedFarm Safety Foundation →

Children on the farm

A farm is a home and a workplace. These are the Health and Safety Authority's rules for keeping children safe.

  • Under 7: never carry a child in a tractor cab — even with a passenger seat.
  • 7 to 16: only in a properly fitted passenger seat with a seat belt, inside a safety cab.
  • Under 14: must not drive tractors or self-propelled machines. Over 14 only with formal training and close adult supervision.
  • Play area: a safe, fenced play area away from the yard, in full view of the house.
  • Keep away: slurry and silage pits, water tanks, grain and chemical stores, working machinery, heights, bulls and cows with newborn calves.
  • Visitors & contractors: tell them when children are about.

Have an escape route and use a crush or gate. Take extra care at calving and with bulls.

Read the guide →Handling equipment →

Slurry gas

Falls from height

Use a proper platform or ladder, never a loader bucket. Fragile roofs need crawl boards.

Read the guide →Safety signs →

Look after yourself

Tiredness and stress cause accidents. Take breaks, ask for help, talk to someone.
