Agriculture is one of Saskatchewan's largest and most hazardous industries. Incidents occur more often during critical farming times. They can cause needless suffering and consequently reduce farm revenues.

To protect Saskatchewan's farmers, their families and employees, our Farm Safety Program works with many partners to prevent injuries and to promote safe work practices on the farm through:

  • educational presentations
  • exhibits at trade shows
  • resource materials
  • information for the media

Grow Up With Safety (GUWS) is a collection of Grades 1-9 teaching/learning resources that were developed by teachers, for use within Saskatchewan’s Health curriculum. 

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) produces and supplies publications about a number of health and safety topics including farm safety.  On this web site, you will be able to pre-view our publications, farm-related and other, and download copies free of cost.  However, you can also order hard copies using our Publications Order Form.  To view/download our Farm Safety Guide (Revised, June 2010), click on the hyper-link below.

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) courses benefit employers, workers and supervisors.  They answer commonly asked questions about the legislation and health and safety in an easy to understand format. Have a look at our course descriptions and Occupational Health and Safety Training Schedule so you can make plans to attend.
