Virtual (Remote) Toolbox Talks

What could be better than a qualified Health and Safety Professional delivering quality, factual, and interesting Toolbox Talks to your team? The answer is nothing is! What we do understand though is that providing such a person, to come and deliver at your offices is not a cheap option so we put our thinking caps on and decided to harness modern technology to deliver this service.

Our delivery method is simple. We will invite your team via ‘Zoom’*, this facilitating two-way interaction when delivering the Virtual Toolbox Talk service. This will allow us to broadcast into your offices, training room or site locations via our HD Webcam, ensuring a quality image is delivered from our training facilities. Thus, reaching out to all your employees who may be on the road, working from home, or even round the world.

^*The Virtual Health and Safety Toolbox Talk service can also be delivered via Microsoft Teams but this will govern the number of individual attendees to 4 – this being due to the current limitations set by Microsoft – please advise if you prefer this option.  

What is Toolbox Talk in Health and Safety?

The term Toolbox talk refers to an informal version of a safety meeting that is often conducted on a construction site before work begins or before shifts. Health and Safety Toolbox Talks discuss safety topics that connect to certain jobs around your construction site that could become hazardous or dangerous to others around the site.

Health and Safety Toolbox Talks are also referred to as safety briefings, as they are a good way of promoting safety awareness around site and helping your employees develop knowledge around the health and safety subject.
