Using pesticides safely

Description

Workers in many different jobs can be exposed to pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, rodenticides, etc.). They include horticulturists, exterminators, greenhouse workers, forestry workers, roadside powerline workers, petroleum sector workers (pipeline right-of-way, wellsites), agricultural workers and aerial pesticide applicators among others. This bulletin explains how pesticides can enter your body, what the health effects are, and what you can do to protect your health.
