Bit of a trivial one... I am in the process of standardising our site offices (getting rid of page 3 and replacing with safety posters etc..) got the full backing of the MD but trying to work out the best items to put on the wall..
so far:
first aid certs
smsts/sssts certs
f10 (when applicable)
h&s law poster
abrasive wheel poster
what to do in event of an emergency poster
Dangers of Excavations (buried services etc) poster..
Can anyone suggest some other good posters / info items to go up?
Thanks

the most effective poster campaigns are those which present information relevant to the project or site. Obviously H&S Law poster and F10 make sense, but beware of getting in to the habit of posting standard items such as Excavations or Work at Height if there is no work of that type going on.
I have found that regularly changing the info on display to reflect the work type (in conjunction with short toolbox talks) tends to be the most effective.
It would also be useful for you to examine your accident stats and see which topic areas need a bit of a nudge. With us it's usually manual handling.
Good luck

How about a 'top ten risks' for the site? Depending on the nature of the project these may vary from week to week but keeps the mind focused.

can you explain why are you trying to get rid of page 3?
This is a serious question as more and more people are being forced into situations and so called [by a minority] politically correct areas and H&S is blamed for enough without such things be added to the blame basket
In 1 cabin I looked at recently the staff, which consisted of both males and females, had posters of both men and women on the walls and all were very happy with the situation noting that this cabin is their only place that they can call home during their working day as they are out on site all the time otherwise and staff wanted to make meal times etc more homely

Bob,
The site office (i did not make reference to the canteen) should be a professional place of work. If i started posting page 3 models up in my office then i would be hung out to dry!
Site offices are where clients / visitors come, the reason for removing topless pictures has nothing to do with H&S, its to with being professional.
Plus, space is minimal in the actual office, need to use the walls for a good purpose.

Hiya,
Enfield Signs make a standard site notice board with identified pockets for the relevant paperwork.
The boards are 8'x4' (but delivered in 2 parts)and some stuff is preprinted right onto the boards.
We use one in the office and one in the canteen - very useful.
They're online I think.
Joe

Morning,
The demolition guys who started on my site yesterday have large photo's of the works area hung on the wall - note photo's not drawings - very helpful when discussing the task and how to proceed,
Jim

We regularly use temporary cabins on our sites. Only post whats relevant to the project. Don`t clog up walls with unnecessary stuff that may never get looked at.
As well as the mandatory items our Company insists on policies (relevant ones), indemnity insurance & emergency procedures/ contact list. I also like to post any relevant risk assessments.

Other than the mandatory posters I would advise that less is more. Plus you can alternate with posters that you may already have.
Using this method will increase the likelihood that they will be read.
Accident Statistics per month is definitely a good way to go (as they constantly change)- but ensure you include a brief remedial action plan. In so doing you are not only highlighting the accidents but the course of action in how to avoid a future reoccurrence.
As others have previously mentioned go for what is applicable to your site rather than generic information as you want to get messages across rather than just putting posters up for the sake of it.
Lee
