The Worker Protection Standard (WPS) is a Federal regulation designed to protect agricultural workers (people involved in the production of agricultural plants) and pesticide handlers (people mixing, loading, or applying pesticides or doing other tasks involving direct contact with pesticides).

Written by Frederick M. Fishel and Tatiana Sanchez, and published by the Agronomy Department, August 2016.
