What duty of care do farmers owe to family members. Policy does not appear to exclude family members.
Two family members injured in seperate incidents while they were working on farm.
They were not paid and were 'just helping out.'
The same as any employer under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act, 2005.
There's agriculture specific information on the HSA website regarding their duties as well as Codes of Practice specifically aimed at smaller farms and farmers.
While the definition of an "employee" may or may not include the family members, they could still be considered as contractors and so would be under the remit of the duty to non-employees.
