Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist is designed for retail premises that sell fireworks and seasonal hazardous goods such as BBQ gas cylinders, charcoal, and related chemicals. It enables managers and staff to systematically verify that all safety, legal and operational controls are in place before the store opens to the public.

Use this checklist for:

  • Shops, supermarkets and shopping centre units selling fireworks
  • Market stalls, pop‑up stores and food trucks offering BBQ or seasonal fuel
  • Event bars or festival stalls handling fireworks or LPG cylinders

It ensures compliance with the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR), the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 and LPG safe‑handling standards and the overarching Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. Following these requirements helps prevent fire, explosion and gas‑related incidents.

How to use: Complete the inspection at the start of each trading day, record any findings and take corrective action before customers arrive. The checklist is fully editable and shareable – customise it to your layout, print hard copies or use digitally on tablets.

By regularly checking licensing, storage, segregation, ventilation, fire protection, crowd management and emergency provisions, you protect staff, customers and your business from costly incidents and regulatory action.

Maintain records of training, risk assessments and equipment inspections alongside this checklist to demonstrate ongoing compliance during HSE inspections or insurance reviews.

Fully editable and shareable – customise to your site, print or use digitally.

Compliant with: Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR), Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 and Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

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?

You can build and preview a checklist without an account. To download the PDF you'll need a free account — it takes less than a minute, costs nothing, and also lets you save checklists to your dashboard and edit them later.

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.
