Safety Meetings

Anyone know where I can get access to safety meeting videos/DVDs at a REASONABLE price. I need to entertain the troops every 10 working days by showing them how to stay alive and in one piece while still getting the job done.

What's wrong with simply discussing relevant safety issues, and the proper use and application of PPE, lockout/tagout, etc?

Try your local safety council

They usually have a library that you can loan them out from for minimal or no cost.

My company uses safety meetings from M.R.S. OSHA Safety Inc. Another is Safety Meeting Outlines Inc. I do not know how much they cost. I can give you phone numbers if you want.

Nothing but we've done that to death and in a small company (me + 6) there is only so much new ground I can think about. When I've rented or purchased videos produced by professionals there is more interest and, hopefully, more absorbtion.

Just an update. I called my worker comp carrier (State Fund) and they sent me a list of about 120 safety videos that they have in their library covering a wide range of topics and run 5-20minutes each. They will send them to me for free whenever I want them. It seems that they have a stake in keeping my employees trained in safe work habits too.
