​Leaders in Ag Safety

Leaders in Ag Safety is a targeted one-day event for farm owner/operators, ranchers, and agri-business safety managers.  

​This event focuses on educating the next generation of agriculture/agri-business by building and strengthening connections between the farming community and the safety community.

​This year, the Industrial Safety Seminar has added sessions specifically for producers to learn from and connect with safety managers and experts on a variety of topics such as:
• Mental health 
• The Farm Safety Program
• Safety Around Power
• Farming Coverage in Saskatchewan - WCB
• Safety Resources and PPE

This is a new addition to the Industrial Safety Seminar will take place on Monday, February 3rd, 2020.

For many years, we've attended agriculture shows across the province and were often barely noticed in comparison to the best looking cattle, hi-tech seeds and fertilizers, or the coolest new combine, sprayer, or tractor. Many times, the few conversations we engaged in were with patrons who had suffered a family loss due to agriculture injuries, all agreeing that something more should be done.
This year, rather than continuing to be the "safety nerds in the corner at the farm shows", we're inviting Saskatchewan farm operators to participate in the premier safety event in Saskatchewan, where safety is the showcase, the bling, and the wow.

Forming a part of our Industrial Safety Seminar, the one-day Leaders in Ag Safety event will engage farm owner/operators, ranchers, and agri-business safety managers in conversations that will lead to a reduction in the number of injuries in their business, create business efficiencies, save them money and time. A limited number of seats are available and for most farm leaders, the cost will be covered. Register today for the 2020 Leaders in Ag Safety by emailing AgLeaders@sasksafety.org.

The 47th Annual Industrial Safety Seminar will be held at the World Trade Centre at Prairieland Park, Saskatoon, SK. The day begins with Breakfast, after which, Ag Leaders attend the Keynote speaker presentation for the day followed by a series of Leaders in Ag Safety sessions, lunch, and a private tour of the Exhibitors at their leisure. (Full agenda TBD).

This one-day event is a great networking opportunity for producers and safety experts alike offering both a chance to learn from and share knowledge with each other. It provides an insight into what the Industrial Safety Seminar is all about in hopes that ag operators will be more inclined to become involved with the event not only as delegates but also as presenters and exhibitors.

The Council realizes that many producers/agri-business managers are interested in safety and may not have the time to attend for the full 2.5 days but may be able to experience Seminar in a condensed version with sessions aimed at agriculture safety. 

This event is aimed at producer’s province wide that have a farm/agri-business operations with three or more employees.
