Toolbox Talk – Power Tools

Full Description

Power tools are used every day on a construction site. While we often take them for granted for how easy they make tasks, they also can come with their dangers. Reminding workers of the hazards should be done regularly through a toolbox talk. But what is a toolbox talk and how can it be used.

A toolbox talk is a document that is reviewed as part of weekly or daily meetings with the workers on site to educate them of safety trends or issues. It is intended to provide a summary of information intended to reinforce key items to the workers. A toolbox talk is given by the supervisor and signed off by workers receiving the talk.

This safety tool box talk on power toolscovers a number of the key basic principles and guidelines for using them on a jobsite.
