The workers are spraying pesticides in close proximity to each other without any personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, masks, or protective suits. One worker is directly facing the spray direction of the other, exposing himself to potential inhalation or skin contact with hazardous chemicals. This creates a high risk of acute or chronic pesticide exposure.

Always wear full PPE—including respiratory protection, goggles, gloves, long sleeves, and chemical-resistant boots—when applying pesticides. Workers should also maintain safe distance and positioning to prevent accidental exposure from drift. Apply pesticides only when wind conditions are suitable to minimize drift, and never spray toward another person. Safety first—protect yourself and your team.
