Safety
Spraying Chemicals
Follow product labels and use caution to minimize risks. The accident: A 27-year-old landscape worker is spraying insecticide at a residential estate when a breeze picks up. Seemingly each time he turns his back to the wind, it changes direction and a cloud of the chemical washes over his face and bare arms.

Safety watch: Heat stress
Protect yourself from heat-related illness. The accident: A 30-year-old landscaper is mowing a residential lawn when he collapses at the end of the day. His co-worker reports he complained of feeling light-headed and short of breath a few hours before he collapsed and refused offers of water. Paramedics transport the man to the hospital, where he dies shortly after arrival. A body temperature of 107.6 degrees Fahrenheit is recorded.
