It guides users to log all work-at-height activities, assess ladder use, confirm staff training, check for completed risk assessments, and verify controls and permits are in place. The template supports adding notes, photos, and links for evidence, and prompts follow-up actions to close out issues.

Maintain three points of contact and use a harness when working 5 feet or higher. Mark each item Controlled, At Risk, or NA, pause unsafe work, and record corrective actions and notes.
