Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist is designed for duty managers and supervisors of budget and limited‑service hotel operations, such as motels and roadside lodges, where staffing levels are minimal and self‑check‑in is common. It provides a practical tool to verify that essential safety measures are in place for both staff and guests.

Use this checklist for:

  • Verifying fire detection, alarm, and evacuation provisions.
  • Ensuring safe use and maintenance of electrical equipment and guest‑room appliances.
  • Confirming appropriate storage and labeling of cleaning chemicals.
  • Assessing lone‑worker communication and emergency response arrangements.
  • Checking that staff have received relevant training and PPE for their duties.

To use the checklist, walk through each area of the premises, answer each question with Yes, No or N/A, and record any actions required. The results should be reviewed by management and any non‑conformities addressed promptly. This approach supports compliance with the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and relevant sector guidance such as COSHH regulations.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team. This tool can be easily adapted for different property sizes and updated as regulations change, ensuring ongoing compliance and safety.

Compliant with: Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.
