FARM TRACTORS CAN KILL WORKERS IN KERN COUNTY. CALL A WORK ACCIDENT LAWYER NOW.
One of California's leading industries is agriculture. Along most Southern California highways, farms and orchards can be seen. Thousands of farm workers tend to the land, and their jobs can be dangerous and deadly. Whether laboring long hours in the hot sun or operating heavy equipment, deadly hazards can lurk at agricultural locations. Following the set safety standards can be lifesaving, but even then farming accidents can occur as the result of defective equipment and human error. Accidents involving agricultural equipment such as tractors, dozers, loader, forklifts and other large machines can lead to broken bones, brain and spinal injuries, severe lacerations, burn injuries and death.
