Risk Assessment Description:

Use this checklist for:

  • Ensuring panic alarm devices in guest rooms are functional before cleaning begins.
  • Verifying communication equipment is operational for lone workers.
  • Confirming that housekeeping staff are aware of emergency procedures and any guest‑specific risks.
  • Assessing the safety of the working environment when a housekeeper is alone in a guest room.
  • Checking that appropriate personal protective equipment is being worn.
  • Ensuring clear plans are in place for dealing with aggressive guests or emergencies.

Fully editable and shareable.

Compliant with: Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. This checklist supports the duties set out in the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and aligns with the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 by ensuring risk assessments are carried out for lone working situations.

It is used by housekeeping supervisors to verify that all control measures are in place before a housekeeper enters a guest room alone, helping to prevent injury, aggression incidents and ensuring rapid access to panic alarms if required.

This checklist also supports the hotel’s duty of care under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, ensuring that risk assessments for lone working are documented and reviewed regularly. It can be integrated into daily briefings and used alongside the hotel’s incident reporting system.
