Daily Pre-Start Briefing Checklist
Use this daily pre-start briefing checklist to plan and communicate work before each shift. Record the type of work, break tasks into steps, assess hazards such as working at height, manual handling, services, and environmental risks, and select appropriate controls from elimination to PPE. Capture PPE checks, permits, deliveries, and any issues, then obtain crew signatures for accountability. Ideal for scaffolding and general construction teams seeking consistent, compliant start-of-day safety practices.

Record job type, map or pole location, feeder number, and date. Identify hazards such as electrical contact, falls, traffic, weather, terrain, excavation, and ice, then confirm required controls like traffic management, equipment inspections, switching steps, protective grounding, and truck grounding. Specify required PPE including rubber gloves and sleeves, arc rated clothing, face and head protection, reflective vests, and fall protection. Assign a designated observer, outline key tasks, and document energized work precautions or alternate procedures. Capture crew names and signatures to confirm understanding and accountability.
