"This report provides for the first time in Australia, national baseline data to determine the proportion of farming enterprises, by specific industry and by state, that have in place systems and processes that meet current regulatory and industry standards for protection of the health and safety of persons who live, work and/or visit farm workplaces. This information will prove crucial in the further development of the Collaborative Partnership for Farming and Fishing Health and Safety Strategy for 2008-2012 to improve physical and mental health, along with the safety environment and work practices in farming. The data will also provide a rigorous baseline measure from which on-going assessment of progress in addressing the objectives of the Strategy can be measured"--P. ix
