Due to the COVID-19 situation it has been necessary to cancel the Mental Health Workers’ Compensation Safety Training session scheduled for March 26, 2020, at the Farm Bureau office in Barnesville. It is not known at this time if the meeting will be rescheduled.
If you were relying on this meeting to meet the requirements for the Ohio Farm Bureau Workers’ Compensation Group Rating program, please see below for an alternative training. Please contact our office at 740-425-3681 with any questions.
Developed in partnership with Nationwide and Ohio State University College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Science’s Ag Safety and Health Program, the online safety series offers three 40-minute modules for learners and covers several basic agricultural risks. Each module integrates an assessment into the online platform to assure basic comprehension, which will help cultivate on-farm behavior modification.
To access the modules, prospective learners must create an account through the Farm Bureau University platform, which is provided in partnership with American Farm Bureau Federation and includes additional self-directed learning opportunities. In addition, successful completion of the modules satisfies the annual Workers’ Compensation Group Rating Program safety training requirement for Ohio Farm Bureau members who are participants.
Visit ofbf.org/agsafety for full details and to access this free training program.
If you have any questions, please call the Belmont, Guernsey, Monroe, Noble County Farm Bureau office at 740-425-3681.
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.
