Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist supports the safe management of unsupervised swimming pool and splash facilities at holiday parks, ensuring the duty of care to guests is met. It aligns with the HSE guidance HSG179 Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools and relevant health and safety legislation.

Use this checklist for:

  • Daily pre‑opening inspections of pool and splash areas
  • Verifying that safety equipment and signage are in place
  • Confirming that staff training and emergency procedures are current
  • Assessing the environment for slip, trip and drowning hazards

All items are closed Yes/No/N/A checks to provide a clear audit trail. The checklist is fully editable and shareable, allowing you to adapt it to specific site layouts or seasonal changes.

Compliant with: HSG179 Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools, Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.

By completing this inspection you help protect guests from drowning, slips, injuries related to glass or alcohol, and ensure rescue provisions are ready. Record findings on the site log and act on any non‑compliance before the pool opens to the public.

The checklist should be completed by the pool supervisor or designated safety officer before each opening. Any items marked No or N/A must be addressed immediately, with corrective actions recorded in the maintenance log. Keep a signed copy on site for inspection by local authorities.
