1 Introduction

1.1 Toolbox talks are a highly effective means of keeping safety at the front of

everyone’s mind.

1.2 5 minutes taken at the start of the work day to reiterate previous training

demonstrate your commitment as an employer to staff training, and serve

as a reminder that your organisation gives safety a high priority.

1.3 It’s important to keep a record of the toolbox talks, and who received

them. An example form is provided at the end of this document.

1.4 Apart from helping to ensure your staff work efficiently and safety, records

of toolbox talks will help an employer defend itself in the event of a claim

should there be an accident.

1.5 Please extend and add to these toolbox talks as necessary for your

organisation.


MUTA’s Toolbox Talks, April 2014 of 25

2 Basic Health and Safety and PPE

2.1 Know what standards of personal appearance and behaviour are acceptable, as they reflect upon the company and crew.

2.2 PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) must be worn as directed by the company AND any additional work site regulations.

2.3 NO PPE, NO WORK.

2.4 Basic PPE consists of:

Steel toe cap boots – to be worn AT ALL TIMES

Hi-viz jacket/vest

Hard hat

Gloves

Safety glasses/goggles

Ear protection

2.5 Any damaged or lost PPE must be reported to a supervisor ASAP.

2.6 All persons must have received and read a copy of the company Health and Safety Policy.

2.7 All persons must be aware of specific HSE work practise guidelines/regulations and MUTA’s ‘Safe Use and Operation of

Temporary Demountable Fabric Structures’. These guidelines/regulations must be understood and adhered to, and are

available to any person who requests a copy from the company.

2.8 No person is to work whilst under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or be in possession of alcohol or drugs in the

workplace.

2.9 All person must be aware of COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) – what substances are covered, what

PPE is appropriate, and what to do if an accident occurs using a COSHH controlled substance.



3 Safe Working Spaces (at base and on site)

3.1 A clean working space is safer than a messy one. Rubbish can be a trip/slip hazard – ALL RUBBISH MUST BE DISPOSED OF

SAFELY AND SUSTAINABLY.

3.2 Be especially careful when handling sharp objects such as screws, nails and broken glass as they will cause injury if

trodden/fallen on. They also cause punctures which in turn may cause a tyre to blow out on the road. This can be lethal.

3.3 Always check and clear a site for work generated rubbish before leaving and in particular ensure that there are no pins,

bolts, nails, etc. left behind that may damage to garden equipment.

3.4 All equipment, ladders and tools must be stored in their designated place after use, and never left on site overnight

(unless otherwise directed by a supervisor). All team members are as responsible for the care of equipment etc. as the

supervisors/foremen.

3.5 Do not attempt to use any vehicle, tool, equipment, or machinery unless trained and authorised to do so.

3.6 HI-VIZ JACKETS/VESTS MUST ALWAYS BE WORN WHEN:

3.7 1 - THERE IS VEHICLE MOVEMENT (INCL. FORKLIFTS ETC) AT BASE OR ON SITE,

3.8 2 - SITE RULES DICTATE THAT THEY MUST BE WORN.

3.9 Do not take unnecessary risks that may affect personal health and safety or that of others – be considerate of other

people. Horseplay and practical jokes can cause accidents and injuries.

3.10 Observe any instructions given by supervisors/foremen/site managers, and any dangerous items/activities must be

reported to a supervisor immediately.



4 Manual Handling

4.1 WORK GLOVES MUST BE WORN FOR ALL LIFTING AND CARRYING ACTIVITIES

4.2 WEATHER CONDITIONS MUST BE TAKEN IN TO ACCOUNT (WIND/RAIN) AND NEVER LIFT (METALLIC) ITEMS WITHIN 6M OF

OVERHEAD POWER CABLES.

4.3 Stop and think (plan the lift):

Is the lifting area and carry route free from trip and slip hazards?

Assess the load:

How heavy is it? Do not attempt to lift anything that you consider to be too heavy for a safe lift – is a lifting aid or

assistance from another person needed?

Is the weight evenly distributed? Always lift with the heaviest side of the load closest to the trunk of the body.

Is it easy to grip? Insufficient hand holds, awkward shapes and wet/slippery items may need additional equipment/people

to move.

In lifts involving more than one person, plan the lift and designate a person to co-ordinate and communicate lift instructions.

How many times does the lift have to be performed and over what distance does it have to be carried – would an alternative

to a manual lift and carry be safer?

4.4 Adopt a good posture:

Feet apart and leading leg as far forward as possible.

Bend the knees, so that when grasping the load hand are as level with the waist as possible, and that the load is as close to

the trunk as possible. Do not kneel or over-flex the knees.

Ensure that the spine is kept as straight as possible, maintaining the back’s natural curve.

Shoulders level and facing the same direction as the hips.



4.5 Get a firm and secure grip.

4.6 Don’t jerk, carry out the lifting movement slowly and smoothly.

4.7 Always move the feet instead of twisting the trunk when turning a load to the side.



5 Safe Use of Ladders and Steps

5.1 Do not climb on makeshift arrangements – use ladders or steps.

5.2 Assess that ladders/steps are the right equipment for the task. Only use ladders/steps for lightweight tasks of short

duration (30 minutes max). If necessary use a more suitable piece of equipment e.g. man basket/tower scaffold/cherry

picker.

5.3 The ladders/steps must be long enough for the work to be performed safely; i.e. Without stretching/over -reaching or

having to stand on the top 3 rungs/within 1m from top.

5.4 Do not use ladders/steps within a horizontal distance of 6m from any overhead power cables.

5.5 Inspect ladders and steps before use to ensure they are in good working condition and have a valid ladder tag. Do not

use if they are broken or defective in any way. Report any defects to a supervisor. Beware of wet, icy or greasy rungs and

check that feet are clean before climbing the ladders or steps.

5.6 Ensure that the ground is firm, level and slip free wherever ladders and steps are to be used.

5.7 Position the ladders at the correct angle – 75° or 1ft out for 4ft up. Position facing the work straight on, not at an angle so

that side loading of ladders/steps is avoided. If steps can only be used sideways on, then they must be footed. (PERSON

FOOTING STEPS MUST WEAR A HARD HAT). Ensure that they are not at risk of being knocked over by vehicle strikes,

opening doors, etc.

5.8 Extendable ladders must be overlapped by at least 3 rungs, and any stays fitted for securing steps/ladders must be

clipped in place.

5.9 Ladders are to be footed AT ALL TIMES and tied off at the top if possible. (PERSON FOOTING LADDER MUST WEAR A HARD

HAT).

5.10 Always work facing the ladder, maintaining 3 points of contact i.e. both feet and one hand.

5.11 Ladders and steps must not be left on site overnight unless otherwise directed by a supervisor.



6 Working at Height – Man Baskets, Harnesses and Safety Ropes

6.1 Never use any equipment unless trained, competent and confident to do so.

6.2 A visual check of the man basket should be carried out by the person who will be in the basket as well as the forklift

operator. This includes ensuring that the basket is correctly and soundly attached to the forklift carriage including safety

chain or strap. Do not use if any damage is evident and report to a supervisor immediately.

6.3 Always use the correct method for mounting/dismounting the man basket to avoid slip and falls.

6.4 ALWAYS USE A HARNESS – EVEN FOR A SECOND PERSON IN THE BASKET.

6.5 Stay within the basket with both feet on the floor – do not hang over the side under any circumstance.

6.6 Know when and where harnesses must be worn and why.

6.7 Ensure that harnesses is in good working condition before and during use. Do not use if damaged in any way and report

it to a supervisor. The harness must be correctly fitted and worn – tight or loose harnesses are dangerous. Confirm that

the correct attachments are used i.e. rope sliders and fall arresters.

6.8 Know when and where safety ropes must be used and why.

6.9 Check the safety rope for damage before use. Do not use if damaged and report it to a supervisor. Ensure that the rope

is located and attached correctly, and that sliders are used to arrest any slip or fall effectively.



7 Safe Use of Pull-Over Ropes

7.1 WORK GLOVES MUST ALWAYS BE WORN WHEN USING PULL-OVER ROPES.

7.2 Ensure pulling path is free from trip and slip hazards.

7.3 Inspect the ropes for any damage/fraying before use.

7.4 When fitting ropes to span roofs, ensure that carbine hooks face upwards.

7.5 Always use the correct stance when pulling so that a fall will not occur should a rope snap/slip.

7.6 Ensure only one person co-ordinates the pull so that motion is even and smooth to avoid jamming and damage to roof

panels/any jarring of the body/pinching the fingers of anyone feeding the keder in to the rail on the opposite side.

7.7 On traditional marquee runners, check for any damage to ropes or wooden handles.

7.8 Always coil and store ropes once they are finished with as uncoiled rope is a trip hazard.



8 Safe Use of Push-Up Bars/Purlin Forks

8.1 HARD HATS MUST ALWAYS BE WORN WHEN USING PURLIN FORKS/PUSH-UP BARS.

8.2 Only use a bar/fork if you are confident that you can complete the lift.

8.3 Appropriate length bars/forks must be used to eliminate the additional use of steps.

8.4 Ensure that the lift path is clear of slip and trip hazards.

8.5 Inspect the purlin for any damage before lifting and be aware of hooks snapping.

8.6 Ensure that the first (curved) end hook is securely hooked in to the frame arch before lifting other end with fork/bar.

8.7 Always keep the bar twisted, 6-8 inches from the end of the purlin.

8.8 When necessary use 2 bars/forks for higher purlins.

8.9 Always ensure that the second hook is secure within the frame arch before removing the bar/fork.

8.10 Never leave the bar/fork lying on the floor – it is a trip hazard and may also get damaged if run over.



9 Safe Use of Hand Tools

9.1 Inspect all tools for damage (e.g. loose hammer head) before use. Do not use if defective and return the tool to the

supervisor.

9.2 Always use snips instead of knives if possible, especially when cutting cable ties etc. Eye protection may be needed for

some cuts.

9.3 When using a knife, always cut away from the hands and body, and ensure that you only cut what you mean too – an

overcut can cause damage to marquee PVCs, electrical cabling, etc. Always retract the blade or store in a toolbox when

finished.

9.4 When using a hand saw, only cut on a suitable and clear flat surface and replace the blade cover when finished. Eye

protection must be worn when using a hand saw.

9.5 Use the right spanner for the task. Where adjustable spanners or sockets are used, take extra care as these slip more

easily.

9.6 Once finished with a tool, ensure that it is returned to the toolbox. Hand tools are easily lost on site, especially on grass.

9.7 All team members are responsible for the care of hand tools, not just supervisors/foremen. Never leave hand tools on

site overnight unless otherwise directed by a supervisor.



10 Safe Use of Power Tools

10.1 Inspect all power tools carefully before use to ensure that they are in a safe condition to use. Check for bare wires and

that cables are not cut, frayed, crushed or damaged in any way. Check that blades in saws are tight and that drills are

appropriately greased etc.

10.2 All power tools should be PAT tested, as should generators, extension cables, battery chargers etc. Do not use if the item

is not PAT tested.

10.3 Never attempt to use a power tool unless competent and confident to do so. Check with a supervisor if unsure.

10.4 EYE PROTECTION MUST ALWAYS BE WORN WHEN DRILLING AND SAWING.

10.5 Only 110V (yellow plug) power tools are permitted to be used on site, via yellow transformer box or generator.

10.6 Care must be taken not to overload any 240V extension cables used for powering caravans.

10.7 When using power tools, all reasonable attempts must be made to ensure that power cables do not become trip hazard.

Make sure that the cable will not be crushed, cut or spiked whilst in use (e.g. by a vehicle driving over it).

10.8 Hammer drills and any other power tools that cause vibrations must only be used by an individual for a max. of 20

minutes in one go, with a break of at least 10 minutes between uses. Exceeding this on a regular basis may cause

Vibration White Finger.

10.9 When finished using a power tool it must be correctly replaced in its box. All team members are responsible for t he care

of power tools, not just supervisors/foremen. Never leave power tools on site overnight unless otherwise directed by a

supervisor.



11 Generators, CAT Scanners, Wackers and Sledge Hammers

11.1 Generators:

Only competent persons are to refuel generators – ensure that correct fuel is used – what to do if there is a spillage (spill kit).

Generators may only be used once permission has been given by the site manager or supervisor and may only be used in

accordance with any site rules on the use of generators.

11.2 CAT Scanners:

CAT scanners must be used for EVERY marquee on EVERY site, either by the site manager or supervisor.

NO STAKE IS TO BE DRIVEN IN TO THE GROUND BY ANY PERSON UNTIL AUTHORISATION HAS BEEN GIVEN BY EITHER

THE SITE MANAGER OR SUPERVISOR.

11.3 Sledge Hammers:

Always inspect a sledge hammer for damage before use (split/damaged handle, loose head), and do not use if defective.

Ensure that the immediate working area is clear of people and objects, thus avoiding injury or damage.

Ensure that there is sufficient distance between hands and sledge head to avoid injury upon contact with stake.

The correct posture and technique must be applied when using a sledge hammer, to avoid injury or damage.

11.4 Wackers:

Only competent persons may use and refuel wackers – ensure that correct fuel mix is used – what to do when there is a

spillage (spill kit).

ALWAYS USE EAR PROTECTION WHEN OPERATING A WACKER.

Wackers may only be used for a maximum of 20 minutes in one go by individuals, with a break of at least 10 minutes in

between uses. Exceeding this on a regular basis may cause Vibration White Finger.



12 Vehicles

12.1 Never attempt to drive or move any vehicle (on or off site) unless you have been trained and authorised to do so.

12.2 All vehicles are to be kept as clean as is reasonably possible. Loose rubbish can be dangerous in vehicles. Bag it and bin

it, do not litter.

12.3 Smoking in any work vehicle is illegal.

12.4 DRIVERS:

A walk around defect check must be carried out on any vehicle (road going or on site) before first use on any day, including

checking engine oil and coolant levels, light, tyres, load, etc. Any defects must be reported and/or rectified before the vehicle

is used.

All on site speed limits/traffic plans must be adhered to. Vehicles must not be parked/driven ‘off road’ without prior

permission from the site manager.

If warning lights/beacons are fitted then these must always be used at all times on site and wherever there is pedestrian

movement.

Vehicles on site must not be reversed without the aid of a competent banksman.

Passengers must only be carried in designated seats.

Vehicles must not be operated whilst under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Any forklift work for other companies must not be carried out without the site supervisor’s permission.

Keys must be removed from vehicles when not in use; unattended vehicles should be locked at all times.

12.5 PASSENGERS:

Never attempt to obstruct, distract or hurry the driver whilst they are performing a vehicle defect check, operating the vehicle

or taking a legally required rest break (if applicable). Do not interfere with any paperwork or tachographs/digital cards

belonging to the driver – they are legal requirements.



13 Safe Loading and Unloading of Vehicles

13.1 Weather and environmental conditions must be taken in to consideration when loading and unloading vehicles.

13.2 Consideration should be taken to ensure that vehicles are loaded/unloaded in a safe and appropriate location.

13.3 Take care when getting on to or off of the bed of a vehicle or trailer and use a ladder or steps if necessary. Once on the

bed be careful that it is not slippery (oil, ice, etc) and that it is clear of trip hazards.

13.4 Only rope/strap a load if you are competent to do so. Use visual and vocal communication before throwing ropes/straps

over a load or before loosening any load restraints. Always rope/strap in order as a load goes on.

13.5 On a curtain sided vehicle, make sure that curtains are not bulging before opening. Only undo ropes/straps one layer at a

time and always check that the load is stable before undoing load restraints.

13.6 Ensure that load bearers are level and stable before loading on to them.

13.7 Uneven loads and overloading can affect a vehicle’s handling and can be extremely dangerous. Always attempt to load as

level as possible with the weight distributed evenly over the bed, and ensure that the vehicle/trailer is not overloaded.

Tail heavy loads are particularly dangerous.

13.8 Vehicles/trailers must not be moved until the load is adequately secured.

13.9 When a forklift is being used to load a vehicle/trailer, keep clear of the area and always wear a hi -viz jacket/vest.

13.10 Ultimately, load security is the responsibility of the driver, so if a driver asks for a something to be loaded or secure d in a

particular way, please oblige.

13.11 If in doubt of anything, always ask a supervisor first.



14 Banksmen

14.1 Banksmen must guide drivers and make sure reversing areas are pedestrian free.

14.2 A banksman should ideally be used at all times when a vehicle is reversing or in a confined or hazardous area.

14.3 Banksmen must wear hi-viz clothing to maximise visibility.

14.4 Ensure that driver has a full understanding/clear system with the banksman, so that any hand signals/signs are clear and

understood by both parties, and use 2 way radios (if applicable).

14.5 Banksmen must never put themselves in a position of danger (trapping points) – ensure that a safe position is found for

the entire reversing operation.



15 Working Outdoors

15.1 General Wellbeing:

It is the responsibility of the individual to ensure that they have enough food and drink for the whole day. Having enough

water when working in hot weather is vital. Remember that the work day may be longer than anticipated.

Wear sunscreen. Much work is done outside and exposure to the Sun can cause long-term damage as well as painful burns.

Wearing a hat can often protect the face and neck, and thin, loose fitting clothes are better than bare skin.

Consider the weather; dress appropriately (e.g. waterproof clothing) and maybe take spare clothes.

Always wash hands before eating. Weils disease is caught by injestion.

15.2 Adverse Weather:

Supervisors/foremen are responsible for deciding when adverse weather conditions become a risk to health and safety, but

in particular, marquees and other temporary structures should NEVER be erected/dismantled during electrical storms or

excessive winds.

15.3 Underground and Overground Services:

NEVER stake or drill in to the ground without prior permission from a supervisor. If an underground service (gas,

electric, etc) is spiked it may be fatal. On sites where underground services are present, they will be marked. These marked

areas must be avoided.

A marquee/temporary structure should never be erected within a shock zone (the area within 6m of the actual power

cable). When carrying out work on a site where (high voltage) power lines are present, remember that electric is capable of

arcing, so be especially careful when handling any framework or push-up bars/purlin forks, etc.



16 General Erection and Dismantling – Framework (up to 15m clear span)

16.1 Never use damaged or defective framework – report it to a supervisor.

16.2 Wear work gloves when handling framework and be careful of any metal splinters.

16.3 Framework must be assembled in a certain order so always follow supervisors’ instructions if unsure.

16.4 Be aware of other people in the area, especially when handling long items such as rafters.

16.5 NEVER use sledges/hammers/force to connect stiff framework as it causes damage – check for obstructions and realign

the pieces. Once at the correct angle frame should always connect smoothly. Be as gentle as possible with framework as

dropping it may result in damage or injury from rebound.

16.6 Once connected ALWAYS secure frame sections together with the appropriate pin & clip or wire bolt. They are easy to

miss if left and this can be fatal.

16.7 Framework being assembled on the ground is an unavoidable trip hazard – be aware of it and avoid crossing it if possible.

16.8 Base plates/feet of frame arches must always be anchored before attempting to lift.

16.9 When lifting/lowering an arch, work as a team. Do not lift/lower until everyone is ready and follow instructions from the

nominated person. As you lift, slowly move away from the arch centre so that weight is distributed evenly amongst the

team, and vice-versa when lowering.

16.10 Hard hats must be always worn when purlins are being lifted/lowered. Stay clear of the area if not involved in this

process.

16.11 When dismantling a frame, ensure that all pins, clips, bolts, etc. are collected and boxed as i f dropped and left may cause

damage to garden machinery or injury to livestock.



17 General Erection and Dismantling – Marquee PVCs

17.1 Report any damaged or dirty PVCs to a supervisor.

17.2 The overall look of a finished structure depends largely on the condition and cleanliness of its PVCs – QUALITY MATTERS.

Carefully stored and installed PVCs look better and last longer.

17.3 PVCs should be kept in their bags until they are needed for use, and re-bagged (and tagged) as soon as they have been

removed from the structure.

17.4 On wet, muddy or abrasive surfaces, use old carpet or old PVC underneath the clean PVC to protect it. Never drag PVC

panels along the ground as this can cause them permanent abrasive damage. Take all reasonable care to keep muddy

feet etc. away from PVCs and never stand or walk on them.

17.5 PVCs are installed and removed in a specific order. Knots in PVC lacings cause damage – ensure that all lacings are tied

off correctly – always follow a supervisors’ instructions if unsure.

17.6 Extra caution should be taken in windy conditions as billowing PVCs can cause injury. Pay attention to supervisors’

instructions.

17.7 A structure must NEVER be left without all PVCs and lacings being completely installed and securely fastened, so that the

structure is sealed from the wind (unless otherwise instructed). Marquees and other temporary structures are very

vulnerable to wind damage if not completely secured.



18 General Erection and Dismantling – Linings, Furniture, Electrics etc.

18.1 Inspect all items for damage (and cleanliness) before installation and do not use if defective in any way. Report it to a

supervisor.

18.2 Care must be taken when working with linings and starcloths as they can become damaged, damp and dirty very easily.

Ensure that hands are clean before fitting linings and caution must be taken so that linings do not come in to contact with

feet or any other dirty surface.

18.3 All items must be stored in their correct boxes, bags, etc. until they are needed for use. Once finished with they should be

correctly boxed, bagged, tagged, labelled, etc. ASAP. Ensure that they are not going to get wet when not in use.

18.4 All electrical items must be PAT tested.

18.5 When stacking furniture etc, ensure that the ground is level and the correct pallet/container/restraint is being used (if

applicable). Do not stack too high, and stack as straight as possible.

18.6 If in doubt, ask a supervisor.



19 Emergency Procedures:

19.1 First Aid – Accident and Emergency:

Be aware of where first aid kits, eye wash facilities, etc. are kept/stored. Report any use of first aid equipment to a supervisor.

Be aware of who is/are the trained first aider(s).

In the event of a person sustaining injury, dial 999 if necessary and/or administer first aid where possible.

All accidents must be reported to a supervisor ASAP and recorded in the accident book as soon as is reasonably possible.

19.2 Fire:

Be aware of the location of any fire extinguishers and exits. If there is an evacuation plan, know what it is.

In the event of fire – Dial 999 if necessary. Raise the alarm. Evacuate and secure the local area. Use an appropriate fire

extinguisher if safe to do so.

19.3 Adverse Weather:

In the event of adverse weather refer to a supervisor for specific advice.

Full PPE must be worn at all times in adverse weather conditions.

19.4 Structural Stability:

No unauthorised alterations (e.g. removal of wire, pegs, ropes, etc.) to structures are permitted. If discovered, notify a

supervisor immediately.

19.5 Security:

Notify a supervisor immediately if any suspicious activity or objects are seen or found on site.
