Risk Assessment Description:

Use this checklist for:

  • Assembling market stalls and kiosks safely
  • Ensuring safe electrical and LPG installations
  • Managing public access and crowd control
  • Preventing trip, slip and fire hazards during set‑up

This checklist is designed for market traders, pop‑up shop owners and event stall operators who need to set up a safe working area for selling goods and serving customers. It covers the key hazards associated with assembling a stall, connecting electricity and LPG, managing stock, and protecting the public from trip or fire risks.

To use the checklist, review each question before and during set‑up, answer Yes, No or N/A, and take corrective action for any negative responses. Keep the completed checklist on site and review it daily for any changes in conditions or equipment.

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

The checklist should be reviewed regularly and updated whenever the stall layout changes or new equipment is introduced. It also helps meet insurance requirements and demonstrates due diligence to local authorities.

Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER).

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.
