The UC Davis Western Center for Agricultural Health and Safety (WCAHS) is inviting all California growers, farm labor contractors and ag supervisors to complete a short survey about their experience addressing COVID-19? in the workplace.

“At the UC Davis Western Center for Agricultural Health and Safety, we are working to respond to the COVID-19 crisis with practical resources for growers, ag employers, and farmworkers,” said Heather E Riden, agricultural health and safety program director. “The goal of this survey is to understand what practices farms are implementing to prevent COVID-19, where they have seen success, and where there may be challenges. We will take this information to assess whether there are new resources, trainings, or information that we can provide.”

The survey ?is anonymous, should take less than 10 minutes ?to complete?, and is available in English and Spanish at https://ucdavis.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2f6Dn5TL8x2aNgh and https://bit.ly/agCOVIDsurvey.

Respondents are given the opportunity to share their contact information at the end of the survey. We plan to share any findings as well as new materials with anyone who expresses interest. We will also communicate via our regular channels.

Please contact aghealth@ucdavis.edu if you have any questions ?and visit the WCAHS website for COVID-19 training resources and employer guidance.

For your reference, we have a robust COVID-19 website with many resources, including an employer checklist and tailgate training discussion guide.
