Electrical Safety Toolbox Talks

Submitted by Alex Hyatt, National Sales Manager

The importance of creating a workplace culture built upon safe working practices is critical for the health and safety of your employees. If you are not already holding weekly safety meetings, now is the time to start and we have a resource that is free to members to make implementation even easier.

Electrical Toolbox Talks are a collaborative effort between our Safety Committee, Federated Insurance Associated Risk Management Services Team, and Minnesota OSHA Consultation. The topics have been selected, edited, and approved by the members of the Safety Committee.

Electrical Toolbox Talks take the guesswork out of what to incorporate into your safety meetings. Our Toolbox Talks are a series of short, concise, industry specific topics. A sign-in form is included for OSHA documentation. They are a great refresher, and keep your employees abreast of changes in regulations, safety procedures, equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), and job assignments and responsibilities.
