Farm workers perform much of the manual labor on farms today and are therefore at high risk for muscle strain as well as traumatic injury. Language and cultural barriers, along with little formal education, often prevent farm workers from understanding safety warnings and other information intended to protect them. For years, NYCAMH has created culturally appropriate, multilingual safety materials with input from the migrant and seasonal farm workers who will use them. We make sure to keep these documents updated to best reach the Spanish-speaking audiences we serve. Thousands of copies of these materials have been printed and distributed to agricultural communities throughout the northeast. Below are several examples of such material but you can find our full catalog of resources here
