NORMs (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials) – Toolbox Talk

NORMs can’t be seen, smelled, or touched—but they can do serious harm. This NORMs Toolbox Talk helps your crew understand where radioactive materials accumulate, what exposure looks like, and how to safely work around contaminated equipment, tanks, and piping—especially in oil, gas, and mining operations.

From maintenance teams to field operators, this talk reinforces that routine tasks like grinding or descaling may expose workers to long-term radiation risks.

What’s Included:

3-page Toolbox Talk Kit:
