Abstract

This paper focuses on tractor rollovers because they account for more than half of all the tractor-related deaths. As per international Labour organization more than 1247 deaths happen annually and more than 60,000 people get seriously injured due to tractor rollover. In addition, farm tractor operational safety principles are also highlighted. It has been observed through this study that the tractor rollovers occur when a tractor tips over, potentially crushing the operator. Furthermore, rollovers can happen on any terrain, but they are more likely to occur on sloping ground or when making sharp turns at high speed. Other factors that can contribute to rollovers include hitting obstacles, improper use of implements, and not using a rollover protective structure (ROPS) or seat belt.
