This Initial Site Take 5 safety checklist helps workers complete a quick pre task risk assessment on the first day at a site. Confirm fitness for work and approvals, check tools, equipment and PPE, and verify energy isolation and machine guarding. Inspect the work area for hazards, communicate risks to nearby teams, and manage risks from falling objects, heights, elevated work platforms and moving plant. Review SDS and environmental factors, identify required permits including confined space, hot work, working at heights, hazardous works and traffic management, then rate risk before and after controls using the matrix and sign off.
