Construction Excavation Safety Checklist
This construction site checklist focuses on excavation and lifting operations. It helps teams verify permits and RAMS sign-on, confirm LOLER certification and weekly inspections, and ensure COSHH assessments and first aid are in place. Use it to record plant and vehicle check sheets, confirm operator competence and PPE, assess access and egress, edge protection, excavation support or stepping, ladder tie-off, davit arm reach, exclusion zones, and site tidiness. The template also prompts checks for temporary works designs, permits to pump, spill kits and drip trays, HAVS registers, and correct storage of lifting equipment to maintain compliance and safety.
