This PUWER machinery safety risk assessment template helps teams evaluate work equipment across mechanical and non-mechanical hazards, intended use and location, and user competency. Record controls such as interlocks, guarding, emergency stops, isolation, and permits to work. Capture PPE requirements, training and supervision, pre-use checks, and maintenance regimes. Assess likelihood and severity to rate risk, note additional assessments such as COSHH, noise, vibration, and manual handling, consider environmental impacts, and document sign-off and review dates.
