Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist supports event site crews in managing cable management, ramp safety and trip prevention during concerts, festivals and other large‑scale events. It aligns with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and incorporates HSE guidance on slips, trips and falls.

Use this checklist for:

  • Verifying that all cables are securely fixed, protected and clearly marked
  • Ensuring temporary ramps and walkways are stable, slip‑resistant and correctly positioned
  • Confirming crew and public routes are free from trip hazards and that emergency access routes remain clear
  • Assessing lighting, weather‑related risks and safe use of any liquids or substances near cables and ramps

How it is used: the site supervisor or appointed competent person walks the event area, answering each question with Yes, No or N/A. Any “No” responses trigger immediate corrective action before the area is opened to the public. The completed record is kept on site for inspection by HSE or venue auditors.

By completing this checklist you demonstrate compliance with legal duties, support safe event delivery, and provide evidence for auditors and insurers that cable, ramp and trip hazards have been systematically controlled.

Fully editable and shareable – adapt the checklist to suit the specific layout of your event site. Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
