✦ Synopsis

An investigation

was carried out into the causes of accidents to farm workers operating post-driver fencing machines.

The approach included analysis of HSE accident reports plus observation of post-drivers in action followed by discussions with the operators. A number of causes of accidents were highlighted, the main ones being the need to hold the post and poor communication between the man operating the controls and the man on the ground manipulating the post. A number of recommendations are made for improvements both to machine design and working practices.

TWO of the problems identified seem to recur frequently in safety evaluation. The first concerns accident costs where the report contains a useful discussion and a table of values used in some member countries. As an example the cost of a single fatality ranges from SUS 18,631 to SUS 287,175. These
