Other Services (except Public Administration): 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 1

Customer-site work planning and scope changes

Confirm authorization, access, occupants, site rules, task boundaries and who can approve changes.

Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?

Week 2

Shop equipment, machine guarding and tools

Inspect equipment, identify point-of-operation hazards and stop when guards or controls are missing.

Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?

Week 3

Vehicle lifts, supports and stored energy

Use rated equipment as designed, verify support points and control movement before working underneath.

Ask the crew: What changed today that could make this work harder or less predictable?
