Toolbox Talks help contractors of all sizes educate their employees on how to identify and respond to hazards and improve jobsite safety. Our Toolbox Talk Series has a growing collection of topics in English and Spanish.
Find all of CPWR’s infographics at https://www.cpwr.com/research/infographics. Topics covered include, among others, Heat, Trench Safety, Opioids, Falls, and newly added: Teen Construction Worker Safety.
Physicians’ Alerts are developed to help ensure that all construction workers at risk of developing work-related medical conditions are properly diagnosed and treated. The Alerts contain valuable information for the worker and their physician related to common exposures and tasks in construction, and include best practices to prevent and mitigate exposure-related conditions.
IMPACT cards detail CPWR research projects and the impact they are having on workers’, contractors’, and other stakeholders’ awareness of hazards, and industry’s use of interventions to reduce illness and injuries on construction jobsites.
IMPACT cards are available as a downloadable PDF or an 8×5 tri-fold card (by request). Below are a few of our most recent cards:
