California has enacted two standards designed to help protect nighttime agriculture workers from on-the-job hazards. Approved June 3 by the state's Office of Administrative Law, the standards require employers to ensure all tractors, self-propelled farm equipment and trucks used between sunset and sunrise are equipped with at least one headlight capable of illuminating a minimum of 50 feet in front of the equipment or truck. Additionally, trucks and equipment must have a least one rear light.
