Key grain handling safety practices when working around grain bins include:

1. Don’t enter a bin unless it’s absolutely necessary.

2. Isolate all energy by completing lockout/tagout procedures.

3. Make sure everyone working around the bin is aware that someone is working inside it.

4. Never enter a bin when you’re alone. Always have at least one additional person on standby outside the bin who can summon help if an accident occurs.

5. Test the air within a bin or silo to assess the presence of combustible and toxic gases and to determine if there is sufficient oxygen inside the bin.

6. Always use a body harness with a lifeline and ensure that the lifeline is secured before entering the bin.

7. Avoid walking down grain or similar practices.

“These were designed for people of a certain weight and certain height… pretty much reflective of the male population in the United States,” says Josie Rudolphi, who researches agricultural safety and health at the University of Illinois.
