A work vehicle has an engine (1), a PTO shaft (6, 7) driven by power from the engine, an operator's seat (19), an operator's presence sensor (26) for detecting presence/absence of an operator at the operator's seat, and an automatic engine stop unit (39) operable to automatically stop the engine in response to detection of the operator's absence at the operator's seat. The work vehicle includes a utility member (A) for the vehicle selectively movable between a use position and a non-use position, a non-use state detecting sensor (27) for detecting movement of the utility member to the non-use position, and an override unit (40) operable to override the automatic engine stop function of the automatic engine stop unit, the override unit providing an override signal to the automatic engine stop unit in response to detection by the non-use state detecting sensor of the movement of the utility member to the non-use position.
