Toolbox Talks
The Health and Safety at Work Act etc 1974 requires you to provide health and safety information, instruction and training. Toolbox talks can be part of this, and much more.
Toolbox talks are important, These small health and safety moments give you and your team the chance to discuss issues that could put you in harm's way. Good leadership and strong management commitment are vital to a successful health and safety strategy. Putting health and safety on the agenda each day shows that it's something that is taken seriously. And if it's taken seriously at the top, health and safety is more likely to be taken seriously at all levels of the business. What better way to show management commitment to safe working practices than a daily reminder.
The benefits of giving toolbox talks might make you consider taking 5-10 minutes out of each day to talk about safety. There are many reasons why daily toolbox talks are better for your business, health and safety management, and the team.
By starting each day with a quick 5-10 minute toolbox talk, it serves as a reminder about the importance of health and safety at work. It gets employees minds focused on the hazards and risks they are about to face. It reminds them of what they need to do to stay safe. It starts the day with a positive health and safety attitude.
Things change, it’s a fact of life. Whether there has been a change in regulations or introducing a new tool or substance, it is important to keep the team up to date. A change in regulations might mean new procedures need to be followed. A new tool might mean a new way of working. A new substance could require different PPE or handling safety measures.
A quick toolbox talk can be used to communicate any updates or changes to workers. It might be used to discuss how the changes will affect them, and what new procedures are in place.
What business doesn't want a positive health and safety culture? It keeps your workers safe, keeps your business out of trouble, and Can Save you Money That's a triple win! So why do some businesses have poor health and safety records? Because growing a positive health and safety culture takes time and effort, and everyone’s involvement.
Your health and safety culture is the values, attitudes, competency and behaviours of everyone in the business. Regular toolbox talks can form part of the health and safety management system to grow your health and safety culture in a positive way.
