Protecting farmworkers during periods of extreme heat is essential.
The New Jersey Department of Agriculture, in partnership with state agencies and Rutgers Cooperative Extension, has developed resources to help agricultural employers and workers prevent heat-related illnesses, including educational materials, a voluntary Heat Illness Management & Prevention Plan, and daily safety checklists.
Take steps to stay hydrated, access shade, and recognize the signs of heat stress to keep everyone safe on the farm.
