The Hazardous Occupation in Agricultural Law requies that youth ages 14 to 16 must have at least 24 hours of tractor safety and Maintenance instruction in order to drive a tractor on a farm other than that owned by their parents. Every employer of a young hired employee should consider this class for their present and summer help. Youth that are only 13 may take the course for the safety experience and may be eligible to receive certification. Space is limited....... Please call Cornell Cooperative Extension Cayuga County to verify eligibility. This is the only course to be held in Cayuga County for 2019 to certify youth.
The cost of the course is $45 per person (fee can be waived for certain circumstances). Which includes a student manual and must be paid before the first class. Attendance is required at all classes in order for student to become certified.
