Mandatory Contractor HSE Audit Checklist

by Paul McNally, from the Community

This contractor HSE audit checklist helps supervisors assess contractor compliance on construction sites. Verify site induction, adherence to safety plans and SWMS, competency and licences, equipment condition, electrical testing and tagging, PPE, materials storage, working at heights controls, first aid and fire protection, and lockout tagout readiness. Record observations, discuss non conformances with contractors, and track corrective actions to ensure WHS obligations are met across daily prestart activities and site operations.
