Risk Assessment Description:

This asbestos management safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps dutyholders, facilities managers and building owners confirm asbestos is being managed safely in any non-domestic premises across all industries.

It covers the asbestos register and management plan, condition monitoring of known or presumed materials, labelling, permits and controls before any work, competence of those involved, and emergency arrangements for accidental disturbance. It references the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance HSG264.

Use this checklist for:

The duty to manage — confirm a register, survey and management plan are in place and current
Condition checks — monitor the condition of known or presumed asbestos-containing materials
Work controls — verify permits, competence and controls before any disturbance

Work through each question and answer Yes, No or N/A. Any No answer flags an action to resolve, so you can record findings, assign follow-up and keep a clear audit trail for audits and inspections. The template is straightforward enough for any manager, supervisor or safety representative to complete without specialist training, and it gives a consistent, repeatable record every time it is used. Completing it regularly helps demonstrate active monitoring and continual improvement of your health and safety arrangements.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team. Save your completed checklist and return to edit it anytime.

Compliant with: Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012; HSE guidance HSG264.

Are the safety checklists suitable for UK workplaces?

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
