Why and When Pre-Task Briefing is Required?

Pre-job briefings are expected before work begins and can take the form appropriate to the situation using the graded approach, from an informal supervisor-to-worker discussion to a formal, structured and documented meeting. The Pre-job briefing is the last confirmation of readiness before performing individual work activities/tasks and provides the job participants with a collective understanding of the task to be completed. Topics typically include requirements for performing the task, identified hazards and necessary controls, environmental impacts, facility conditions, emergency contingency actions, and individual roles/responsibilities.
