Risk Assessment Description:

This hotel electrical safety checklist from Health & Safety Zone helps maintenance and facilities staff ensure that all portable electrical appliances in guest rooms are safe to use and compliant with the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. The template covers risk assessment, staff competence, environment, specific appliance condition, PAT regime, and emergency preparedness.

It addresses key areas such as the condition of kettles, hairdryers, chargers, extension leads and portable heaters, the proximity of electrical equipment to water sources, and the required personal protective equipment when carrying out inspections. The checklist is aligned with the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and HSE guidance on portable appliance testing.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑use inspections – verify each appliance is in good condition before guests arrive.
  • Routine PAT testing – confirm testing records are current and any failed items are removed.
  • Safety audits – spot‑check rooms and corridors for electrical hazards.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A; any No response must be acted upon before the appliance is returned to service. Record the outcome in the PAT log and ensure corrective actions are completed.

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

Compliant with: Electricity at Work Regulations 1989; Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.

Can I customise the checklist questions to my workplace?

Yes — fully. Add your own questions, edit or remove any of the pre-written ones, and reorder them to suit your site, task or inspection before you download.

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?

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.

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

Yes — add your company logo, colours and details on Standard and Pro plans, so the exported checklist carries your own branding. Guests and Free downloads carry Health & Safety Zone branding.

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

The exported checklist is a blank, ready-to-use document: print it and tick Yes, No or N/A against each question and write any comments in the notes space, then sign and date it in the sign-off section.

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.
