Be accountable: choose safety – work safe – and go home injury-free!
A Safety Talk is a two- to five-minute “talk” on a safety-related topic. It’s a quick safety “huddle”. The manager, supervisor or someone who is knowledgeable on the subject matter can lead the Safety Talk. SASWH has a variety of Safety Talks developed for you to use and some that can be customized with information specific to your facility or area.
Providing Safety Talks aligns with the Safety Management System Element 3: Training and Communications (3.4).
