Downloads: 20+

This Site Hazard Audit checklist helps teams assess on-site risks and implement controls before starting work. It covers common construction hazards such as working at heights, electricity, falling objects, moving parts, slips and trips, and environmental factors. The form guides users through step-based task analysis, selection of control measures, and verification of worker competence and training for tools and equipment like scissor lifts and forklifts. It includes a risk matrix to compare pre- and post-control risk levels, prompts for escalation when risk is unacceptable, emergency planning steps, and a sign-off section. Use it to standardize assessments, improve compliance, and enhance site safety.
