Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist supports hotel spa, sauna, steam and treatment room inspections, ensuring safe operation and compliance with UK health and safety standards. It guides staff to verify that water treatment, temperature controls, ventilation, electrical safety and hygiene practices are correctly managed, reducing the risk of heat‑related incidents, Legionella and other hazards.

Use this checklist for:

  • Daily pre‑opening inspections of spa pools, saunas and steam rooms
  • Routine maintenance checks and risk assessment verification
  • Ensuring compliance with the Legionella ACoP L8 and HSG274 guidance
  • Training and competence verification of spa and treatment staff

Fully editable and shareable, this template can be customised to match your venue’s specific layout and procedures. It provides a clear, step‑by‑step series of Yes/No/N/A questions that can be completed on paper or digitally, allowing quick verification that critical controls are in place before guests use the facilities.

How to use: complete the checklist at the start of each shift, record any non‑compliances and take immediate corrective action. Retain records for audit purposes and to demonstrate compliance during inspections.

Additional guidance covers monitoring heat‑collapse risks in saunas and steam rooms, regular inspection of temperature controls, verification of water treatment dosing accuracy, and checking that emergency shut‑off devices are functional. It also emphasises the importance of adequate ventilation, slip‑resistant flooring, and appropriate personal protective equipment for staff handling chemicals.

Compliant with: Legionella ACoP L8, HSG274, Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

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.

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.
