I seem to recall the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) provided a similar set of TBTs some years ago. Perfect for boring the pants off site operatives.

I’d deliver this in small groups, maybe sevens. It certainly has the potential to bridge gaps and win hearts, just so long as you don’t cheat. Don’t do it too often as it will try their patience.

Are we non-believers in TBT in general or mundane reading out from sheets?

TBT are good so long as you talk with, not talk at.

TBTs have their uses, it's their limitations that are the problem. I have lost count how many incident investigation reports end with the corrective action being a TBT, even for serious incidents. Indeed, I have had clients ask me to include a TBT following a serious incident.
In short, they are cheap, easy to apply and largely ineffective. They definately are not a substitute for proper training.

Agreed, I think they do have a place however as you say it's often a lazy implementation which solves nothing. One system for TBT that I have introduced formerly which was quite effective was to get the operatives themselves to do the talk, groups of 10 each took it in turns once a week. It added to the learning as the individual doing the talk researched the subject and also there was the humor element that "so and so" is doing the talk, listener engagement was increased and a competent person on the subject was on hand to answer questions.
Although the talk to vs at comment is spot here, I find thats a problem as well even in more formal training sessions.

Theres always one joker in the pack!
On a serious note. I do believe the TBTs have their uses. But, as Ray says, so long as they are not used as a replacement for good training. Also, I am not very keen on "off-the-shelf" products when it comes to H&S. I have written every TBT either myself or my project managers have delivered. So I wouldn't persoanlly recommend the cards.
However, that was not the OPs question, so to that end, here is a link: http://www.hsl.gov.uk/hsl-shop/safe-deal/safe-deal
