What is WPS?

The Worker Protection Standard (WPS) is an EPA regulation aimed at protecting over 3.5 million workers across 560,000 agricultural workplaces from pesticide exposure. It establishes critical safety measures, including:

Pesticide Safety Training – Educating workers on safe pesticide handling and exposure risks.
Application Notifications – Ensuring clear communication about pesticide usage and restricted areas.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) – Training on the proper selection, use, and maintenance of PPE.
Restricted Entry Intervals (REI) – Understanding when and where re-entry is permitted after pesticide application.
Decontamination & Emergency Assistance – Access to clean-up supplies and medical aid if exposure occurs.
