Risk Assessment Description:

This PPE for pool plant and chemical handling safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps pool plant operators and technicians in commercial gyms, swimming pools and leisure facilities ensure that personal protective equipment is correctly selected, fitted, maintained and used when handling pool chemicals.

It covers the essential areas of risk assessment, competence, work environment, chemical handling procedures, PPE provision and condition, storage, emergency provisions and record keeping. The checklist aligns with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH) and HSE guidance for swimming pool safety.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑use inspections of PPE before chemical dosing or maintenance.
  • Routine site inspections to verify ongoing compliance with chemical safety standards.
  • Incident investigations and post‑task reviews.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A. Any No response must be addressed before work continues or corrective action recorded.

When using the checklist, tick the appropriate response for each question, note any required remedial action in a separate log and ensure that corrective steps are completed before the task proceeds. Review the checklist regularly to confirm PPE stock levels are adequate and that all equipment remains in good condition.

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

Compliant with: Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH).
