Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist supports safe planning and execution of CCTV and security system installations across commercial, public and residential sites. It ensures that all necessary authorisations, risk assessments and method statements are in place before work begins, and that competent personnel carry out the tasks.

Use this checklist for:

  • Mounting cameras on walls, poles, ceilings or elevated platforms
  • Running and securing power and data cabling
  • Connecting to power supplies, network switches and recording equipment
  • Testing and commissioning the system

Fully editable and shareable – adapt the questions to suit your specific site, equipment and client requirements.

Compliant with: Work at Height Regulations 2005, Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998, Electrical Safety – The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.

The checklist is intended for supervisors, electricians, installers and safety officers. It guides them through verifying that risk assessments are up‑to‑date, that isolation procedures are followed, that manual handling plans are in place and that any work at height is carried out in line with the Work at Height Regulations 2005. By confirming that tools are inspected, cables are secured and fire‑risk measures are provided, the checklist helps prevent injuries, equipment damage and project delays.

This tool can be printed or used digitally on site, with each Yes/No/N/A response recorded to demonstrate compliance during audits.
