Use this telecom cabling risk assessment checklist to plan and execute safer works. It helps teams review PPE such as harness, safety boots, gloves and hard hat. Address excavation activities, traffic speed limits, and work locations including busy roads, schools and country roads. Consider occupational health risks from manual handling, noise, dust and vibration. Identify confined space or work at height tasks and capture site setup photos. Protect pedestrians and vehicles and verify warning signs and road closures following Chapter 8 guidance. Check equipment like petrol generators, cabling tools and water pumps. Add control measures and photo evidence before starting.

Cabling Risk Assessment Checklist
This cabling risk assessment checklist helps teams plan safe street works and site activities before starting. Capture site details and photos, confirm PPE such as harness, safety boots, gloves, and hard hats, and assess hazards like excavation, confined space entry, and work at height. Verify traffic and pedestrian protection with Chapter 8 signage, barriers, and gate guards, note road speed limits and work location risks, and ensure equipment such as generators and pumps are in good condition. Record control measures, occupational health considerations including manual handling and vibration, and document evidence before commencing work.

Pre Start Risk Assessment - Splicing and Cabling
Use this pre-start risk assessment checklist for telecom splicing and cabling tasks to identify hazards and verify controls before work begins. Record site conditions, environmental risks, unsafe areas, lone working, lighting, first aid, and waste disposal for fiber sharps. Confirm PPE and tools, review RAMS, and assess manual handling. For working at height, capture MEWP details, IPAF and LOLER compliance, ladder checks, fall arrest systems, and pole climbing readiness. Include confined space gas detection and GDU calibration, evidence and photos, and team acknowledgement prior to starting.

Splicing and Cabling Risk Assessment Checklist
This telecom splicing and cabling risk assessment checklist helps field teams identify and control hazards before and during work. It covers site conditions, exposed wiring, access routes, lighting, and PPE readiness. Technicians verify ladder condition, recent inspections, two point pole tie off, non slip feet, and pre climb testing, or confirm MEWP readiness with valid LOLER certification and operator training. The checklist includes COSHH controls such as labeling, fiber waste and sharps disposal, and the use of a gas detection unit prior to confined space entry. Use it to document findings, assign actions, and maintain compliance with safety requirements on cabling and splicing jobs.
