Good Housekeeping Toolbox Talk Form

by Matthew Oneill, from the Community

This toolbox talk form focuses on good housekeeping practices for construction sites. It helps crews reinforce safe access and egress, proper waste disposal, organized storage of materials, and keeping tools and PPE in their proper places. Use it to remind teams to clear walkways, prevent trip hazards, remove or repair damaged equipment, and secure loose objects when working at height. Regular housekeeping reduces fire risks, improves escape routes, and maintains an orderly, safer job site.
