Working directly underneath overhead powerlines is a daily occurrence in the farming industry. With farm machinery getting bigger, the gap between these powerful lines and the highest point of machinery is shrinking, leading to an increased risk of accidents. Every year, thousands of incidents occur, with some tragically resulting in serious, life-changing injuries. Adverse weather conditions such as storms heightens the health & safety risks for those in the farming community and the wider public with the increased possibility of downed lines. The NFU (National Farmers' Union) have published this helpful article which outlines how problems can be prevented and what to do in the event of an emergency.  https://lnkd.in/enm-7dej #HighVoltage #StaySafe #AgricultureSafety
