This shop safety audit checklist covers basic shop safety, machine and equipment safeguards, electrical compliance, and maintenance and parts management. It helps teams verify emergency readiness, check fire protection and first aid access, confirm operator training and SOP adherence, assess machine guards and E‑stops, and review housekeeping across aisles, yards, and parking areas. Sections address GFCI usage, panel clearance, cords and plugs, storage practices, signage, and shop cranes. Use it to document issues, attach photos, and capture auditor sign-off to drive corrective actions and ongoing safety improvements.
