Use this on-site contractor management checklist to guide inductions, review RAMS, issue Authority to Work and Permit to Work, and conduct a dynamic risk assessment before work begins. Verify qualifications, PPE, access, and emergency measures, identify hazards such as working at height, confined spaces, asbestos, and vehicle movement, and select appropriate controls including LOTO, guarding, ventilation, and housekeeping. During the job, assess behavior, documentation, and site control, then complete a post work review to confirm scope completion, waste records, and certificates. Ideal for facilities and construction teams, and customizable to your site.

Authority to Work and Dynamic Risk Assessment
This Authority to Work and Dynamic Risk Assessment checklist helps contractors and site managers confirm readiness before starting work. It covers site induction, approvals, competence checks, tools and PPE verification, and whether a high risk permit is required. The form prompts review of current SOPs and risk assessments, SDS availability, tool inspections, calibration and certification status, safe access and lighting, environmental conditions, hazard barriers, emergency procedures, first aid and eyewash access, incident reporting, and PPE selection and maintenance. It includes a comprehensive hazard list and suggested risk controls such as LOTO, guarding, safe access equipment, lifting aids, ventilation, task lighting, housekeeping, and specialist training. Acceptance and signatures capture contractor confirmation and engineer approval.
