How supervisors use these safety talks
Many supervisors simply pick one talk per shift and use it as a quick 5-minute tailgate meeting. Others build a monthly rotation of topics for their safety calendar.

- Read the key hazards, then walk through the 2–3 minute script and reminders.
- Ask the crew questions and let them share examples from recent jobs.
- Use the sign-in sheet to document attendance for safety records and audits.
