Hand and Power Tools Pre-use Inspection Checklist
All tools and equipment must undergo thorough inspections before use. This template is recommended to be used on a weekly or monthly basis as some tools are used heavily depending on the job being done. Start by providing a description of work and list down the tools to be used for the operation. Do a site walkthrough to check if the area is safe and free from potential hazards. Evaluate if the workers are competent, wearing appropriate PPE and are not under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Next inspect if the hand and power tools pass quality standards and are free from damages like cracked blades, fraying cords, worn out handles and loose parts. Lastly, take photos of tools which need repair or replacement for documentation. Also, cite recommendations and important reminders to improve hand and power tools safety.
