safety briefing

Emergency procedures overview

A safety briefing is a short presentation of safety procedures and emergency protocols, typically given before an activity begins.

Flight attendants deliver safety briefings before takeoff; guides give them before rafting trips or factory tours.

The term implies a standardized, sometimes perfunctory review: Nobody pays attention to the safety briefing anymore.
