Keeping it in Dayworks
In Dayworks, each day's briefing carries the toolbox talk topic and the key risk, so what was talked about sits on the same record as the day's work.
Other templates
- Daywork sheetRecord the labour, plant and materials used on instructed daywork, with a box for the client's representative to sign on the day.
- Site diaryA day's record for one area: weather, labour, work against the plan, deliveries, visitors and delays, signed off at the end of the shift.
- Daily activity briefing (DABS)Plan each area's activities, plant, permits and deliveries for the shift, with the toolbox talk, key risk and a sign-on sheet.
- Labour allocation sheetBook each person's hours against the day's activities, with totals by person and by activity, so every hour on site is accounted for.
- Permit to work registerLog every permit issued on site: its number, type, location, who issued it and to whom, when it runs out and when it was closed.
