Risk Assessment Description:

This farm pesticide mixing and application safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps farmers, farm workers and contractors ensure safe handling, mixing and spraying of plant protection products on agricultural land.

It covers all essential aspects of safe pesticide work, including authorisation, training, weather and drift control, closed‑transfer mixing, equipment inspection, personal protective equipment, emergency spill response and waste disposal. It references the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 and relevant HSE guidance on pesticide use.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑mixing checks – confirm risk assessment, product authorisation and correct mixing procedures.
  • Application checks – verify weather, PPE, equipment condition and drift‑control measures before spraying.
  • Post‑application review – ensure clean‑up, waste disposal and record‑keeping are completed.

The checklist should be completed on site before any mixing or spraying begins. Tick Yes, No or N/A for each item, and take immediate corrective action for any No responses to prevent exposure or environmental harm.

Answer Yes, No or N/A to each item; any No response must be resolved before work proceeds or corrective action taken afterwards.

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

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

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?

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.
