Scout's Toolbox Talks

Improper fuel storage turns a work area into a fire waiting to happen.

Gasoline, solvents, and other flammable liquids require careful handling and secure storage to prevent fires and explosions. These toolbox talks cover OSHA and NFPA requirements, proper container labeling, approved storage cabinets, grounding procedures, ignition source control, and safe transfer practices. Use them to help crews store and use flammables responsibly — and safely.

Use these toolbox talks to reduce fire risks from fuel handling and maintain OSHA-compliant flammable liquid storage on the jobsite.
