Staff Training Manual & Digital Resources
Livestock Handling Practices for Marketing Center Staff is a great resource designed as a training tool for new employees, especially those unfamiliar with handling cattle in an auction mart setting, and can be used as a refresher for experienced cattlemen. Your employees will increase their understanding of safe and responsible livestock handling, therefore reducing workplace injuries and supporting animal health.
While the practical, easy-to-follow manual and accompanying flash drive were produced in Saskatchewan, the best practices described are valuable at marketing centers and assembly yards across Canada.
The complete training resource package is available for $175.00 plus GST (includes shipping and handling).
