Frequently asked questions

What is a Take 5?

A Take 5 safety book provides a structured five-step process for identifying workplace hazards before starting any task. Workers assess the job, identify hazards, evaluate risks, control measures, and confirm safety before proceeding. This pocket-sized book documents each assessment, creating a record of safety considerations. The Take 5 method encourages workers to pause and think through potential dangers rather than rushing into tasks. It suits all industries and job types, from construction and mining to manufacturing and facilities management.

Is Take 5 a legal requirement in Australia?

While Take 5 isn't specifically mandated by law, Australian WHS legislation requires employers to identify hazards and assess risks. The Take 5 process fulfils these legal obligations by providing a documented risk assessment method. Many Australian companies mandate Take 5 assessments as part of their safety management systems. SafeWork authorities across all states recognise Take 5 as an effective hazard identification tool. Using a Take 5 book demonstrates due diligence in meeting WHS compliance requirements.

How do you use a Take 5 safety book?

Before starting any task, complete the five steps: Stop and think about the job, Look for hazards, Assess the risks, Control the hazards, and Monitor the situation. Write each step in the designated sections of the book page. Include specific hazards you've identified, controls you'll implement, and any additional safety measures needed. Both the worker and supervisor should review and sign the completed assessment. Keep the duplicate copy for your records while the original stays with the worker. Complete a new Take 5 for each significant task or when conditions change.

Can Take 5 books be customised?

Yes, we offer custom Take 5 books tailored to your specific industry or site requirements. Customisation includes your company logo, specific hazard categories relevant to your work, site-specific controls, and additional fields for permit numbers or supervisor details. Custom books ensure the Take 5 process aligns with your existing safety systems and documentation requirements. Contact us to discuss your customisation needs, including minimum order quantities and design options.

What size is the Take 5 safety book?

The Take 5 book measures 130mm x 80mm, designed to fit comfortably in a shirt pocket or tool belt. This compact size ensures workers can carry it easily throughout their shift without interference. Despite the small format, each page provides sufficient space for detailed hazard identification and control measures. The spiral binding allows the book to lie flat when writing, even in confined spaces. Each book contains multiple duplicate sets on 100gsm paper for durability in industrial environments.
