Toolbox Talk – Injury-Free WE 08/06/2022

August 6, 2022 by Gribbins Insulation

What Injury-Free is NOT:

  • It is not the same as zero injuries
  • It is not a goal, but rather a value
  • It is not a guarantee
  • It is not a prescription
  • It is not the elimination of all risk

What Injury-Free IS:

  • It is about caring for one another, and demonstrating that care on a daily basis.
  • It is about all workers going home safely everyday.
  • It is about a mindset intolerant of any level of injury.
  • Taking responsibility for your own safety and those that work with you and around you.
  • Being proactive and asking questions, such as what is the most dangerous thing that can happen to me while performing this task, and how can I mitigate this risk.
  • Having a positive attitude of choosing to follow the safety rules and procedures.
  • Speaking up and expressing your concern when you see something unsafe.

What our leaders should expect from us!

  • If a task is not safe, do not perform the task or letter other employees perform the task.
  • Speak up immediately if you see something unsafe. Have a voice!
  • If you are unsure of something (gut feeling), stop work and speak up.

What we should expect from our leaders!

  • Support, when someone does “stop work” or speak up.
  • When a safety concern is brought to our attention, it should be addressed, corrected, mitigate, or communicated further up to management or customer.
  • If an injury occurs, it will be investigated in such a way to not blame the injured.

Personal Challenges

  • Individual commitment to safety, and intervene
  • Preventing injury or loss
  • Ignore it and we condone it
  • Lead by example
  • Learn from experience
  • Support each other
  • Drive the organization towards World Class Safety!
