Are all of FARSHAs services free of charge?
FARSHA’s mandate is the provision of health and safety materials and services to British Columbia farm employers and farm workers. Therefore, almost all of FARSHA’s booklets, brochures, loaned materials, training programs, site visits, safety evaluations, and so on – are free of charge to its stakeholders. (One exception is the Pesticide Applicator Certificate course, which involves a modest fee so that FARSHA can recoup its own costs.) If you are outside of BC or are not involved in agriculture, some of FARSHA’s resource materials may be available on a cost‑recovery basis – contact the FARSHA office for more information. Booklets in PDF form on this website may be printed for use by anyone interested in farm safety issues.
