Health and Safety Briefing

A health and safety briefing is an in-person team briefing used to highlight key risks, expectations, and reminders in the workplace. In addition to physical health and safety, briefings can be used to:

  • set the tone for respectful workplace behaviours

  • reinforce that sexual harassment is not tolerated

  • identify who to approach if concerns arise

Health and safety briefings can be used in a range of settings, including:

  • live venues and sites, for contractors, crew, and visitors before work begins

  • studio environments, prior to collaborations between artists, musicians, and technical staff

  • workplace events or conferences

The health and safety briefing resource provides guidance on structuring briefings and includes suggested language for addressing sexual harassment.
