Risk Assessment Description:

This Legionella monitoring safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps facilities and maintenance staff in commercial gyms, swimming pools and leisure centres keep water systems safe for users and meet legal duties.

The checklist covers temperature control, routine flushing, chemical treatment, record keeping, corrective actions and emergency provisions, and is aligned with the Legionella ACoP L8 and HSG274. It follows the ten‑dimension safety framework, ensuring that risk assessments, staff competence, environmental conditions, plant integrity, substance control, personal protective equipment, collective safeguards, emergency arrangements and final make‑safe steps are all addressed.

Use this checklist for:

  • Daily monitoring – verify hot and cold water temperatures, flushing of seldom‑used outlets and correct dosing of treatment chemicals.
  • Weekly inspections – inspect storage tanks, check for sediment build‑up, clean and disinfect as required.
  • Record verification – confirm that monitoring logs are up‑to‑date, signed and that any corrective actions have been completed.

Each question is answered Yes, No or N/A; any No response must be investigated and resolved before water is supplied to members or staff. The checklist provides a clear audit trail for internal reviews and external inspections.

Fully editable and shareable — customise the questions to match your site’s specific plant, download as a PDF and distribute to the maintenance team.

Compliant with: Legionella ACoP L8; HSG274.

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.
