Warehouse Health and Safety Compliance Audit

Use this warehouse health and safety and compliance audit checklist to evaluate risks and verify operational compliance across your site. Review fire safety systems and signage, emergency plans and evacuation drills, first aid resources, and weekly checks. Inspect racking for damage, load signage, pins and floor bolts, and ensure safe loading and housekeeping in aisles and docks. Verify forklift and material handling equipment certification, daily and weekly equipment checks, and staff induction and manual handling training. Assess building security including CCTV, access control, visitor logging, alarms, and lighting. Confirm electrical and statutory testing such as PAT, fixed wire testing, thermal imaging, and LOLER inspections. Check spill kits, waste and WEEE storage, yard tidiness, permits to work, fall protection and pallet gates, and record keeping for audits and corrective actions.
