Risk Assessment Description:

This cash‑in‑transit security safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone assists security operatives, door supervisors, CCTV/control‑room operators and managers in delivering safe cash collection and delivery services.

It addresses the specific hazards of cash‑in‑transit work, including robbery and violent attack, manual handling of heavy cash containers, lone work exposure on public pavements, and the planning of secure routes and drop‑off points. The checklist incorporates requirements for risk assessment, staff competence, secure vehicle and container checks, personal protective equipment, communication protocols and emergency response, ensuring compliance with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑operation security checks before cash collection or delivery.
  • In‑process monitoring during transit and handling.
  • Post‑operation sign‑off and incident reporting.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be addressed before proceeding or escalated according to your security protocol.

To use the checklist, tick Yes, No or N/A for each question on site, record any No responses, investigate the cause and implement corrective actions before continuing. Keep the completed checklist on file as evidence of compliance and for audit purposes.

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

Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.

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?

No — guests can build and download a checklist for free without signing up. Register a free account if you want to 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.
