Serious question, do we really need daily toolbox talks when the crew already knows the job?
I was looking at some safety stats from a mid-size contractor in Ohio and found that crews doing daily 5-minute huddles had 40% fewer recordable incidents over a year compared to the same type of work without them. I used to think those talks were just a box to check and a waste of 10 minutes every morning. But then I saw the numbers for a highway project in Columbus where they started doing them and their near-miss reports went from 12 to 3 in six months. Now I'm wondering if I've been wrong about this my whole career. Anyone here actually seen a real drop in incidents after starting them, or is it still just paperwork to you?
