Abstract

Modern agricultural production requires the use of agricultural machinery. Among all agricultural machines, the tractor is one of the most frequently used agricultural machines. In this paper, we perform a literature review and explore various safety hazards a tractor operator is exposed to. Next, we present the results of a work safety related survey we conducted in Osijek-Baranja and Vukovar-Srijem counties. We conclude the paper with a list of safety related observations we derived from our research.
