Safety meeting is the right time to discuss about health and safety related matters in the workplace. Safety meeting can be held regularly or incidentally as a response on occurrence of a specific health and safety problem or after an incident or accident happens.
Ideally, safety meeting focuses on just one specific topic. But, what kind of topics do we have to discuss? Here are some topics that you can use in the safety meeting:
Safety policy
Applicable safety regulations
Compliance status on safety regulations
New safety regulation
Incident and accident investigation
Safety audit findings
OHSAS 18001 surveillance findings
Safety patrol finding
Personal protective equipments
Eye protection
Hearing protection
Hand and foot injuries
Risk assessment for new plant facility
On-way traffic control in the plant site
Pressure vessel regular testing

Fire fighting placement and location indication
Self-inspection system
Chemical exposure control
Safety training program
Gas cylinder control and protection

Loss control report issued by plant insurance company

It had better to provide schedule for every safety meeting, especially for regular safety meeting. Don’t forget to file them when you have finished using the materials. Later you will need it.
