This Take 5 pre-task risk assessment checklist helps maintenance teams stop and think before work begins. It guides workers to describe the task, identify hazards including stored energy sources (electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal), verify isolation and lockout, note common injury risks (struck-by, slips, trips, strains, heat/cold, crushing, cuts, chemical exposure), assess risk level, add and implement controls, and decide if work can proceed safely. Includes photo capture, manager notification for high risks, and team sign-off to confirm shared understanding of hazards and controls.
