The Interesting Health & Safety Podcast

Pre-Start Briefings


Listen Later

This time, Colin talks about pre-start briefings and meetings, a tool being sorely under-utilised in the business sector, and how they can positively impact the tasks ahead.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Many misunderstand the effectiveness of pre-start briefings, or handle them in an entirely misjudged way. They are very important in establishing the narrative of the jobs ahead.
  • Rather than delivering dry, monotonous diatribes that come across as preachy, look at the positive things we've learned from the past, and how we can best impact the future

BEST MOMENTS

'What is the story of the job?'

'There's some fantastic opportunities when things don't go right!'
