Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist is designed for farmers, farm workers, stockpersons and agricultural contractors who need to carry out a thorough inspection of a farm workshop. It helps identify hazards related to plant, substances, fire risk, electrical safety and general housekeeping, ensuring that the workshop remains a safe environment for daily agricultural activities.

Use this checklist for:

  • Machinery guarding
  • Hot work and fire safety
  • COSHH substance handling and storage
  • General housekeeping and site organisation

Use this checklist to verify that machinery guarding is intact, hot work is controlled, hazardous chemicals are stored and labelled according to COSHH, fire safety provisions are in place, electrical equipment is safe and that the workshop layout promotes clear egress and good housekeeping. The checklist also confirms that workers are competent, have received appropriate training and are using the correct personal protective equipment. It supports ongoing compliance monitoring and continuous improvement.

How to use: Walk through the workshop and answer each question with Yes, No or N/A. Record any non‑compliances and take corrective action before the next work shift. Review the checklist regularly, especially after changes to equipment, processes or substances.

Compliant with: Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH), Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. Fully editable and shareable.
