Agriculture has one of the highest fatal injury rates of any industry in Great Britain, but is the only high-risk industry that has to deal with the constant presence of children. Farms are homes as well as workplaces, and visitors, including children, may also be present on farms.

Children and young people up to the age of 18 are regularly killed and injured on farms, either because they are working on the farm or because they are playing there.

This leaflet provides practical guidance on how to reduce the risk of injury to children under 13 and older children below minimum school leaving age (usually 16). It also identifies tasks and operations that are too hazardous for children and young people to do and includes examples of incidents from real life often involving a parent killing their own child.
