Risk Assessment Description:

This pool plant room daily safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps pool plant operators and technicians verify that all plant room systems, chemicals and safety measures are ready for safe operation each day in commercial gyms, swimming pools and leisure facilities.

It covers risk assessment confirmation, staff competence, plant room environment, chemical dosing equipment, bund integrity, circulation pressure and flow, ventilation, gas alarms and spill signage, referencing the HSG179 Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools guidance. The checklist follows the ten‑dimension safety framework, ensuring that planning, people, plant, substances, PPE and emergency provisions are all reviewed before work begins.

Daily monitoring of the plant room prevents chemical spills, equipment failure and hazardous atmospheres, protecting staff, pool users and the surrounding environment. By following this checklist you demonstrate compliance with HSG179 Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools and maintain a safe operating environment.

Use this checklist for:

  • Daily pre‑start checks – ensure plant room equipment and safety systems are operational before use.
  • Routine inspections – spot‑check plant conditions during operation.
  • Maintenance hand‑over – record any defects for corrective action.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be addressed before the plant room is used. Record the response on the log sheet, investigate any non‑conformities and complete corrective actions before the next shift.

The completed checklist should be retained for at least six months and be available for health and safety audits.

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

Compliant with: HSG179 Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools.
