40 Ideas For Safety Meeting Topics

Safety meetings are the right time to discuss about health and safety related matters in the workplace. Safety meetings can be held regularly or incidentally as a response on occurrence of a specific health and safety problem or after an incident or accident occurs.

Ideally, safety meetings focus 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 meeting:

  1. Safety policy
  2. Applicable safety regulations
  3. Compliance status on safety regulations
  4. New safety regulation
  5. Incident and accident investigation
  6. Safety audit findings
  7. OHSAS 18001 surveillance findings
  8. Safety patrol finding
  9. Personal protective equipments
  10. Eye protection
  11. Hearing protection
  12. Hand and foot injuries
  13. Risk assessment for new plant facility
  14. On-way traffic control in the plant site
