Toolbox Talk — Brick and Block Cutting with Saws
Toolbox Talks are short, focused safety discussions held regularly on construction sites. They keep safety front-of-mind and demonstrate ongoing WHS consultation with workers. Our Toolbox Talk documents come pre-built with trade-specific talking points, hazard reminders, and an attendance register for worker sign-off. They save you the time of writing meeting content from scratch while ensuring you cover the critical safety topics for your trade.

Using This Toolbox Talk On Site
Run the talk before work starts — ten to fifteen minutes, on site, with the crew standing where the work will happen. Cover the talking points, use the discussion questions to check people are actually with you, then fill in the attendance register. The signed register is your record that the conversation happened.
