Overview

This European Standard establishes a uniform format for reporting accidents where the following equipment are involved: - agricultural and forestry tractors (NACE code 09.02.03.01); - equipment fitted on tractors (for example, a front - end loader) (NACE code 09.02.99.00); - equipment mounted on the tractor (front and/or rear) (NACE code 09.02.99.00); - equipment towed by tractors (trailers and machinery) (NACE code 09.02.04.99); - self-propelled machinery (NACE code 09.02.03.02); - telescopic loaders (NACE code 09.02.03.02); - lawn and gardening equipment (NACE code 09.02.99.00); - powered hand-held machinery used in agriculture (NACE code 09.02.99.00). Accidents with this equipment on road use are also covered by this document. Are excluded from the scope of this document: - the aforementioned equipment when used in another environment than agriculture, forestry and landscape gardening (for example, tractors used on construction sites); - material handling equipment with the exception of telescopic loaders, and fixed installations. All profiles of harmed persons should be in the scope. There should be no distinction/exemption between employers, employees, self-employed persons, bystanders or other persons involved in the accident. Situations that are excluded from the scope of this document: - near-miss accidents and other incidents, not resulting in harm; - chronic diseases as a result of physical agents. Fire hazards are only in the Scope for those fire accidents that have caused physical harm. This standard contains the German version of EN ISO 16231-2:2015 prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23 "Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry" in cooperation with Technical Committee CEN/TC 144 "Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry" within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). The national interests in the preparation of the standard have been represented by Committee NA 060-16-30 "Einzelthemen" ("Specific projects") of Section Landtechnik ("Agricultural machinery") at DIN Standards Committee Mechanical Engineering (NAM). Representatives of the interested parties involved in preparation of the standard.
