Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist assists campsite and holiday‑park staff in carrying out a thorough inspection of children’s play areas, water features and fire or BBQ zones. It ensures that all hazards are identified, risk‑controlled and that the site complies with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and related management regulations.

Use this checklist for:

  • Daily or pre‑opening safety inspections of playground equipment
  • Checking barriers, signage and supervision arrangements around ponds, lakes or splash‑pads
  • Verifying safe set‑up and operation of open fires, barbecues and associated fuel storage
  • Confirming that staff are competent and that emergency provisions are in place

Fully editable and shareable – adapt the questions to suit the specific layout and facilities of your campsite. Record answers on site, flag any non‑compliance and ensure corrective actions are completed before the area is opened to the public.

How to use: complete the checklist on each inspection, sign off any required actions, retain the record for the period defined in your risk assessment and review it regularly as part of your safety management system.

Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and relevant HSE guidance for playgrounds and fire safety.

Can I customise the checklist questions to my workplace?

Yes — fully. Add your own questions, edit or remove any of the pre-written ones, and reorder them to suit your site, task or inspection before you download.

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?

Yes — add your company logo, colours and details on Standard and Pro plans, so the exported checklist carries your own branding. Guests and Free downloads carry Health & Safety Zone branding.

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.
