Week 1
Line start-up, changeover and shift handoff
Confirm machine state, staffing, product/material changes, open maintenance and production coordination.
Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?

Manufacturing: an 8-week safety conversation plan
Use one topic each week to connect planning with real work. Adapt the questions, work examples and controls to your site, workforce, equipment and jurisdiction. These topics are editorial starting points; they do not establish training completion, qualification or regulatory compliance.
Weekly topics
Week 2
Machine guarding and point-of-operation hazards
Identify the hazard zone, safeguards, safe feeding methods and conditions that require stopping the job.
Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?
Week 3
Lockout, stored energy and group work
Map energy sources, control stored energy, coordinate authorized employees and verify isolation before exposure.
Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?
Week 4
Chemical handling, transfer and process exposure
Use product-specific hazard information, closed/controlled transfer, ventilation, PPE and spill response.
Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?
Week 5
Forklifts, pedestrians and internal traffic
Separate routes, manage crossings and loads, and maintain clear communication in shared spaces.
Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?
Week 6
Ergonomics, repetitive work and material handling
Review force, reach, repetition, task variation and mechanical aids for the actual workstation.
