A toolbox talk is a short, informal safety meeting or briefing that focuses on a specific safety topic relevant to the work being carried out on a construction site or other work environments. It typically involves a discussion led by a supervisor or safety professional with a group of workers, addressing topics such as:
- Safety hazards specific to the current work task. - Proper use of equipment and tools. - Emergency procedures and preparedness. - Safe work practices and techniques. - Company policies and procedures. - Lessons learned from recent incidents or near-misses.
Toolbox talks are meant to raise awareness about potential hazards, reinforce safety practices, and provide an opportunity for workers to ask questions or raise concerns. They are a key part of maintaining a safe work environment and ensuring workers are aware of and prepared to deal with potential risks. These talks can occur daily, weekly, or as needed, depending on the nature of the work and the company's safety policies.

They are commonly used in workplaces where exposure to high levels of noise can pose a risk of hearing damage.
Ear defenders consist of two cups that fit over the ears and are connected by a headband or other securing mechanism. The cups contain sound-absorbing material that helps to block out loud noises.
