RML Workshop Take 5 Checklist

This RML Workshop Take 5 checklist helps workers perform a quick pre-task risk assessment in workshop environments. It guides users to confirm fitness for work and approvals, verify tools, equipment and PPE are in good condition and in date, identify and control energy sources with lockout tagout, check machine guards, inspect the work area for hazards, and communicate risks to nearby personnel. It prompts checks for falling objects, slips, trips and falls, use of elevated work platforms, crush or strike-by risks from plant and machinery, chemical hazards and SDS, and environmental impacts. It includes permit verification for confined space, hot work, working at heights, hazardous works, traffic management and isolation. Users can document hazards, controls and photos, then sign off that the job is safe or escalate to a supervisor.
