Published by SALUSTailgate safety meetings are brief on-the-job meetings designed to prevent accidents, illnesses, and injuries by improving the safety culture at your job site. They are required in construction and tunneling industries but can reinforce training in all California workplaces. [1] [1] [1]
When reviewing a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and pre-task checklist during a tailgate meeting, consider the following points:
- Relevance: Keep the discussion relevant to the tasks workers perform, addressing existing job site problems using real-life experiences.
- Review Findings: Discuss OSHA Log 300 records and findings from safety inspections, accident investigations, and near-miss investigations, including corrective actions.
- Hazard Awareness: Remind employees, especially newer ones, of the dangers of working with specific machinery, tools, equipment, and materials.
[1] [1] [1] To run an effective meeting:
- Hold the meeting at the job site where everyone can sit and relax, preferably at the start of a shift or after a break.
- Research the topic beforehand using sources like manufacturer's manuals and safety data sheets.
- Explain why the topic is important, familiarize yourself with it, know your company procedures, include relevant regulations, and have enough copies of written material.
- Keep the topic specific and practical by demonstrating safe work practices and proper use of tools and equipment.
- Encourage discussion and input by asking questions about work practices.
- Share personal experiences or have a worker tell a story about a near miss or injury.
- Keep the meeting short, usually 10 to 15 minutes.
[1] [1] [1] [1] [1] [1] [1] [1] [1] After the meeting:
- Consider if the topic fit the job site and if the crew participated.
- Evaluate the impact by observing if employees can recognize and correct hazards.
- Document the meeting topic, date, attendees, and actions taken.
[2] [2] [2] [2] Tailgate meetings should occur at least every 10 working days in construction, and weekly in tunneling, but more frequent meetings may be necessary depending on work conditions and the safety culture. [2]

# SETTING UP A TAILGATE/TOOLBOX SAFETY MEETING (cont.) ## How to Run an Effective Meeting (cont.) 10. After the meeting, consider the following: • Did the topic fit the job site? • Did the crew participate? • Did someone demonstrate safety equipment or safety practices? 11. Afterwards, evaluate the impact of the tailgate meeting. Are employees now able to recognize and correct hazards? Ask questions, walk the job site, and observe. 12. Document/record the meeting topic, date, attendees, and any actions taken. ## How Often Should You Have Toolbox/Tailgate Meetings? Section 1509 (construction) requires them at least every 10 working days, and Section 8406 (tunneling) at least weekly. However, depending on the work conditions and safety culture of the job site, they should be held more frequently- even daily if necessary. ## Additional Tailgate Meetings Resources Title 8 California Code of Regulations (T8CCR) (www.dir.ca.gov/samples/search/query.htm) - 1509 - IIPP Construction Safety Orders • 3203 - IIPP General Industry Safety Orders • 8406 - IIPP Tunnel Safety Orders California FACE Program - Fall Prevention Tailgate Training Materials (www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CCDPHP/ DEODC/OHB/FACE/Pages/Tailgate.aspx) Electronic Library of Construction Occupational Safety and Health (eLCOSH) (www.elcosh.org/index.php) Cal/OSHA Publications (www.dir.ca.gov/dosh/puborder.asp) CAL/OSHA Pocket Guide for the Construction Industry • Tailgate Safety Meeting Topics Cal/OSHA Consultation Branch (www.dir.ca.gov/dosh/consultation.html) [redacted email] • Toll-free Number: 1-[redacted phone]

STATE OF CALIFORNIA CAL OSHA DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS California Department of Industrial Relations Division of Occupational Safety and Health Publications Unit # SETTING UP A TAILGATE/TOOLBOX SAFETY MEETING January 2020 Job site tailgate and toolbox safety meetings are brief meetings, proven to prevent accidents, illnesses, and on-the- job injuries by improving the safety culture at your job site. Refer to the referenced Title 8, California Code of Regulations (T8CCR) sections for details on the requirements for these safety meetings. ## Why Have Tailgate/Toolbox Safety Meetings? They are required for the construction (T8CCR Section 1509) and tunneling (T8CCR Section 8406) industries. In addition, all California employers must have an Injury and Illness Prevention Program that includes employee training in safe work practices (T8CCR Section 3203). Tailgate/Toolbox meetings can help reinforce that training. ## What to Talk About? Work practices, machinery, tools, equipment, materials, attitudes, and anything else that may cause or contribute to a work-related accident or illness. Keep the topic relevant to the job or tasks that workers perform. Address existing job site problems by drawing on workers' real-life experiences. Review and discuss: • OSHA Log 300 records. • Findings from safety inspections and accident and near miss investigations, including corrective actions taken. Supervisors or foremen should remind all employees - especially newer ones - of the dangers of working with particular kinds of machinery, tools, equipment, and materials. You should also carefully observe your workplace and employees' work activities for potential safety hazards.
