Safety Professional highlighting dangers of strike by / crush by with concrete workers working around equipment in the background.

“Can you record a 3-minute safety video each week and send it to our team?” 

As I pondered over that question posed to me by the President of a large commercial construction company, it became clear to me that the time for change was here. 

It was the fall of 2012, in Grand Rapids Michigan, where I was in my second year as the Director of Safety for a large commercial construction company.  From that day on, I was convinced that the old, boring, irrelevant paper toolbox talks were on their way out.  I also knew that sending random internet videos was not the professional image we wanted to convey for safety.  It screamed cheap and lazy.  Sorry, but it did.

So...

With commitment from the top, I began recording 3-minute weekly safety videos and have not stopped.  To be honest, my first ones were embarrassing.  Really embarrassing!  But I listened to the feedback and kept producing. 

I follow that same model today.  Listen to the needs of the field; and produce.  This is what has led my team to develop the videotoolboxtalks.com that you see today: 

 An automatic, fun, relevant, interactive, weekly 3-minute safety video system for construction companies that records and reports progress.

Thank you for all you do for safety, and I’ll see you out there!
