TRAINER GUIDE
How the class runs
The trainer guide splits the 45 minutes like this. The notes on each slide say what to say.
| Minutes | What happens |
|---|---|
| 3 | Slides 1 and 2: welcome, sign-in sheet and goals |
| 6 | Slides 3 to 5: the hazard, the ABC model and what may be behind a shortcut, using the flip chart |
| 9 | Slides 6 to 10: the rules on training, inspections, unsafe equipment, retraining and injury reporting |
| 10 | Slides 11 to 16: step by step, with a short practice observation and a feedback role-play |
| 2 | Slide 17: common mistakes |
| 6 | Slides 18 and 19: scenario exercise in small groups, then the debrief |
| 1 | Slide 20: recap |
| 7 | Slides 21 to 30: the crew answers the paper quiz, then go over each question |
| 1 | Slide 31: closing, sign-in sheet and handouts |
What you need
- Slides on a screen, or printed copies for each person
- Sign-in sheet
- 10-question quiz and answer key, one quiz per person
- Crew handouts and certificates
- Blank observation cards for each person, plus clipboards and pens
- Flip chart or whiteboard and markers
- A real task nearby that the crew can watch safely for a few minutes
- Our injury and close call reporting procedure, and the tags we use for unsafe equipment
Tips from the guide
- Use tasks from this job for every example, and let the crew pick which shortcuts to talk about.
- Never ask anyone to name a coworker they saw taking a shortcut. Talk about tasks and conditions, not people.
- When someone admits a shortcut, thank them and ask what made the safe way hard. Do not blame.
QUIZ
3 of the 10 quiz questions
Pick your answer, then open it. The kit's answer key has them all.
In the ABC model, what is an activator?
- What happens after the behavior
- What comes before the behavior and prompts it
- A type of PPE
- The person doing the observation
Show the answer
B. Activators come before a behavior and prompt it, like a sign, a rush job or a missing tool. Consequences come after.
An observation finds a grinder on a construction site with its required guard missing. What must happen?
- Keep using it carefully until the job is done
- Do not use it. Tag it as unsafe, lock its controls or remove it
- Let only experienced workers use it
- Note it on the card and keep working
Show the answer
B. In construction, equipment that does not comply with an applicable requirement must not be used, and must be tagged, have its controls locked or be physically removed.
In general industry, who performs the periodic inspection of a lockout procedure?
- The same worker who uses the procedure
- An authorized employee other than the ones using the procedure
- Any visitor to the site
- Nobody, because it is optional
Show the answer
B. The periodic inspection must be performed by an authorized employee other than the ones using the energy control procedure being inspected.
