Risk Assessment Description:

This COSHH cleaning chemical store safety checklist template is designed specifically for cleaning and housekeeping teams working in commercial gyms, swimming pools and other leisure facilities. It helps ensure that hazardous cleaning substances are stored, labelled and handled in line with best practice and legal requirements, protecting staff health and preventing incidents.

The checklist covers all critical aspects of chemical storage, including the existence of a current COSHH risk assessment, proper ventilation, clear labelling, segregation of incompatible substances, bunded secondary containment, regular condition checks, waste handling, spill response provision and the availability of appropriate personal protective equipment. It also confirms that staff are trained, safety data sheets are accessible, signage is displayed and the store remains secure.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑store inspections – confirm the store meets safety requirements before each shift.
  • Routine audits – verify ongoing compliance with COSHH and facility policies.
  • Incident follow‑up – ensure corrective actions are taken after any spill or near‑miss.

Fully editable and shareable – customise the questions to your specific site, download as a PDF and distribute to your cleaning team.

Compliant with: Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH); Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.

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.

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.
