The farmers explain the importance of having good health and safety practices, maintaining the shearing shed and preparing the sheep well for shearing.
Beetham is passionate about building good processes in to his business and supports the new programme.
"The first thing is recognising that you have got to make a start with health and safety."
"It is actually really easy and it makes things run more efficiently. Most farmers would be surprised just how much better off your business would be just spending a little bit of time getting those systems in place."
Falloon says his top priority is to have an independent person inspect and maintain his woolshed annually.
"It's really important because the last thing you need is a machine breaking down in the middle of shearing."
In 2017, there were 755 work-related injuries in wool harvesting, resulting in 9300 working days lost to the industry, according to ACC weekly compensation data.
The same year there were 4700 work-related injuries in wool growing, resulting in 35,000 days lost to the industry.
Tahi Ngatahi project manager Trish Ryan says the videos teach everyone involved in the industry about their role in creating a safe workplace.
"Tahi Ngātahi means one, together and we believe we can prevent injuries by helping the whole team understand each other's roles in and around the shed.
"It's a great resource for everyone in the industry, including farmers and staff who use a shearing contractor or have an open shed, or do some shearing or crutching over the year. While a lot can shear, they may be able to improve their approach so they don't injure themselves.''
Shearing contractors can show farmers that they and their staff are Tahi Ngātahi certified, while farmers can also complete the digital woolshed 'Warrant of Fitness' to ensure their shed is compliant.
