A “Toolbox talk” is a short presentation on a single aspect of health and safety. The talk usually takes place prior to the start of work. Toolbox talks are quick, simple, and easy to understand safety discussions. A toolbox talk is ideally an informal discussion of about 5-10 minutes with workers to chat about awareness of health and safety risks associated with their tasks. An effective toolbox talk helps promote a culture of safety in the workplace and facilitates a sharing of knowledge and safety best practices among workers.
