This garage and shop safety audit checklist helps teams assess key areas of a maintenance or repair facility. Cover general housekeeping and training, emergency readiness, and OSHA-related items like eyewash stations, first aid, and fire extinguishers. Verify electrical safety, including GFCIs, cord integrity, and panel access. Review hot work controls, PPE availability and use, spill response, paint booths, and hazard communication with MSDS access and proper labeling. Use it to identify risks, document findings, and drive corrective actions for a safer, compliant shop.
