Risk Assessment Description:

This Bodyshop Daily Safety Checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps workshop managers and supervisors ensure safe daily operation of spray booths, chemical storage, dust extraction and hot‑work areas in motor‑trade vehicle repair facilities.

It supports compliance with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 and related HSE guidance, covering risk assessments, staff competence, ventilation performance, fire‑prevention measures, personal protective equipment and waste handling.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑shift inspections – verify that all plant, controls and protective measures are ready.
  • In‑process checks – confirm ongoing compliance during the workday.
  • End‑of‑day sign‑off – ensure the area is secured and records are updated.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A; any No response must be corrected before work continues or the shift ends. The checklist also prompts verification of first‑aid provision, fire‑blanket availability and isolation of solvent supplies.

Use the checklist at the start of each shift; any item marked No must be corrected immediately and recorded in the maintenance log. Supervisors review the completed checklist before the shift ends to ensure ongoing compliance.

Fully editable and shareable – customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002; Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.

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?

You can build and preview a checklist without an account. To download the PDF you'll need a free account — it takes less than a minute, costs nothing, and also lets you save checklists to your dashboard and edit them later.

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

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

The exported checklist is a blank, ready-to-use document: print it and tick Yes, No or N/A against each question and write any comments in the notes space, then sign and date it in the sign-off section.

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.
