Workplace Risk Assessment Checklist

by Josh Mercieca, from the Community

Use this workplace risk assessment checklist to identify hazards around machinery and plant, evaluate risks with a consequence–exposure–probability matrix, and plan controls using the hierarchy of controls. Covers crushing, entanglement, cutting, shearing, striking, high-pressure fluids and gases, electrical, gases and vapors, slips, trips and falls, manual handling, suffocation, temperature, lighting, and noise. Includes action plans with responsibilities, due dates, and sign-offs.

Workplace Risk Assessment
This workplace risk assessment template helps teams identify hazards around plant and equipment, including entanglement, cutting and puncturing, shearing and burning, striking, high-pressure fluids and gases, electrical risks, gases or vapors, slips, trips and falls, manual handling, suffocation, temperature, lighting, and noise. It includes a structured risk matrix using consequence, exposure, and probability to generate a risk score, guidance on the hierarchy of controls, and configurable action plans. Assign responsibilities to Health and Safety, Maintenance, Production, Warehouse, Brewhouse, Line Managers, or Contractors, track completion dates, and capture auditor sign-off to improve safety compliance.

Risk Assessment Checklist
Use this workplace risk assessment checklist to identify hazards, evaluate risks, and plan controls across industrial environments. It covers common hazards such as crushing, entanglement, cutting and puncturing, shearing, burning and friction, striking, high-pressure fluids and gases, electrical, gases and vapors, slips, trips and falls, manual handling, suffocation, temperature, lighting, and noise. A built-in risk matrix scores consequence, exposure, and probability to calculate overall risk, with guidance on the hierarchy of controls including elimination, substitution, isolation, engineering controls, administrative controls, and PPE. Action plan sections allocate responsibilities across departments to close out hazards.

Monthly Manufacturing Risk Assessment Checklist
Assess manufacturing workplace risks monthly with this structured checklist. Review hazards related to crushing, entanglement, cutting, shearing, striking, high pressure fluids, electrical, gases and vapours, slips, trips and falls, manual handling, suffocation, temperature, lighting and noise. Capture risks, mark urgency, and select mitigation using the hierarchy of controls including elimination, substitution, engineering, isolation, administrative controls, and PPE. Includes auditor sign-off.

Risk Assessment Checklist for Manufacturing
This manufacturing risk assessment checklist helps teams identify hazards such as crushing, entanglement, cutting, electrical, manual handling, slips and trips, temperature, noise, and more. Score consequence, exposure, and probability to calculate risk, apply the hierarchy of controls, and assign action plans with due dates and responsible roles. Use it to standardize safety reviews and reduce incidents across production.
