Daily Prestart Risk Assessment and Briefing
by Maryanne Roberts, from the Community
This daily prestart risk assessment and briefing template helps construction teams start work safely and consistently. Capture site and project details, assess workplace hazards, and document additional risks not covered in the SWMS. Confirm that the SWMS has been reviewed and signed, record attendance at the prestart briefing, and outline how information will be communicated to absent workers. Check that required safety equipment and PPE are in good condition, note any actions from equipment inspections or previous prestarts, and verify notifications to the regulator for hazardous works. Use this template to streamline communication, track actions, and maintain a clear record of prestart safety controls before work begins.
