Toolbox talks

Make the discussion count.

Prepare a talk around the work, review it with the right person and share it with the crew. Keep the discussion and sign-on records together, rather than treating a sent message as proof of understanding.

How it works

A practical path from the phone to the record.

01

Prepare

Open More > Toolbox talks or the job's talk workflow. Choose the topic or describe the work and conditions that need discussion.

02

Review and discuss

Check the drafted content. Use the available audio if helpful, and make space for crew questions and the controls that matter today.

03

Record participation

Share the permitted link or QR and retain sign-on records. Review actual delivery and attendance rather than assuming everyone received or understood the talk.

Scheduled talks

Scheduled toolbox talks are off by default. When you switch them on for a site, Sitepack writes a talk at 6am Brisbane time on the days you choose (daily, weekdays or weekly) and texts it to that site's crew. Scheduled talks are sent without a review step, so check the topics regularly. You can also prepare and review a talk yourself before sending it.

Manual talks

Prepare an extra talk when the work changes or a specific issue needs discussion. Automated output does not remove the need to review it.

Evidence

Keep the talk and participation records available with the job. A message delivery receipt is not a record of understanding.

Know the boundaries

No. Retain the sign-on record, but discuss the hazards and check understanding through your site process.

Yes. Sitepack is browser-based. Shared sign-on links have limited permissions; creating and managing talks requires the appropriate account access.
