Use this point of work risk assessment for civils to plan and document safe methods before excavation and trenching. The template helps teams identify hazards such as slips, trips, falls, working near highways, overhead and buried services, dust, vibration, noise, manual handling, mechanical lifting, and confined spaces. Record CAT and Genny checks, permits to dig, traffic management and signage, PPE, and environmental controls including COSHH, spill prevention, and protection of trees, hedgerows, and waterways. Capture site setup, roles, agreed controls, and sign-off to ensure every crew understands the safe system of work.
