This book has been developed to help farmers understand their legal responsibilities, as well as provide practical solutions to health and safety issues to help prevent serious or fatal injury on their properties. In South Australia, the Work Health and Safety Act 2012 (SA) or ‘the Act’ protects all workers, including employees, contractors, subcontractors, outworkers, apprentices and trainees, work experience students, volunteers and employers who perform work. For most of you, your farm is both your workplace and your home, and sometimes the lines can blur. Your farm is a workplace when your neighbour volunteers at your farm, or you call in a casual contractor, or the local stock agent drops in – you are responsible for their health and safety while they are on your property.
