This Stop-Think-Work Safe checklist helps teams pause before beginning a task to think through the work, identify hazards, and put controls in place for safer outcomes. It prompts workers to confirm understanding of SWMS and SOPs, check PPE and tools, locate services, and assess fitness for work. The checklist covers common risks such as overexertion, falls, nearby activities, mobile plant, and contact with harmful substances. Record hazards, assign controls, and verify implementation, then monitor and review to complete the job safely. Suited to construction, maintenance, utilities, and industrial field work.
