This warehouse safety inspection checklist helps teams assess the condition of work areas, lighting, floors and aisles, and the stability of stored materials. It covers emergency readiness including evacuation routes, unobstructed exits, and functional emergency and exit lights. Fire protection checks include extinguisher placement and charge status, and first aid kit accessibility. Electrical safety items address cord condition, extension cord use, covered boxes, and labeled panels. Material handling sections verify licensed operators, forklift seatbelt use, daily inspections, and eyewash availability near battery charging. PPE and behavior checks include gloves, high-visibility apparel, and safety boots when outside marked walkways. It also reviews controls for ignition sources, proper storage of flammable liquids, chemical labeling, and safe propane cylinder storage. Includes guidance to document deficiencies and assign corrective actions.
