Construction safety glossary

424 safety words we use in our toolbox talks, with the Spanish your crew will hear on a bilingual jobsite. Use it when the foreman says it in English and the crew knows it in Spanish, or the other way around.

Every term comes from our own English and Spanish talks, each reviewed on its own. Next to each term are the talks that use it, so you can read it in context. There are no definitions here: for what OSHA requires, open the talk, which cites the exact paragraph.
