This chemicals inspection checklist helps teams verify safe handling and storage of chemicals across work areas. Evaluate container integrity and labeling for hazardous substances, confirm chemical rooms and bunded areas are maintained and free of ignition sources, and ensure Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are readily available. Check ventilation or exhaust systems, lighting, and proximity of eyewash stations and safety showers. Verify spill kits are accessible and housekeeping is maintained in each department.

COSHH Audit Checklist
This COSHH audit checklist helps teams assess how hazardous substances are managed on site. Verify chemical inventories, control of chemical entry, and availability of safety data sheets and COSHH risk assessments at point of use. Check bunded storage, secure and correctly labelled containers, segregation of incompatible chemicals, and proper handling of waste. Confirm PPE availability and use, operator awareness of hazards, spill response readiness, and presence of spill kits. Inspect gas bottle storage and regulators, flammable cabinets, and container seals. Review first aiders’ details, first aid and eyewash condition and expiry, and fire-fighting equipment and training across work areas.
