Innovative research is one of the main pillars of UMASH, along with outreach and communication – all in an effort to improve the lives of agricultural workers in the Upper Midwest. The goal of our occupational safety and health research projects is to provide solutions to decrease illness and injury.
Each brief provides an easy-to-read overview, including:
- Key personnel
- Summary of findings
- Project background
- What does it mean for agricultural safety and health?
- What’s next? Possible solutions or recommendations
We know that agriculture remains one of the most dangerous occupations, and there is more to learn and apply to decrease risks and hazards. We will be compiling our findings from the most recent projects which span the years of 2017- 2022. Stay tuned for how UMASH is working to translate research into practice to keep farmers, workers and families safe, healthy, and injury- and illness-free.
