Risk Assessment Description:

This vape shop safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps retail managers and staff verify that all hazards linked to e‑cigarette sales, lithium‑battery storage, nicotine liquids and fire safety are controlled before opening or during routine checks.

It covers competence, store layout, ventilation, hazardous substance handling, battery charging, age‑verification procedures and emergency provisions. The checklist is aligned with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 and best practice guidance for retail environments.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑opening inspections – confirm the shop is safe for customers and staff.
  • Periodic retail audits – maintain ongoing compliance.
  • Training and briefings – reinforce safe handling of e‑liquids and batteries.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No response must be corrected before the shop operates.

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

To use the checklist, the responsible manager should walk the shop, marking each question as Yes, No or N/A. Any No response must be addressed immediately, with corrective actions recorded, before customers are admitted.

Regular review of this checklist helps maintain compliance with health and safety legislation and protects both customers and staff from harm.

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

Can I customise the checklist questions to my workplace?

Yes — fully. Add your own questions, edit or remove any of the pre-written ones, and reorder them to suit your site, task or inspection before you download.

Are the safety checklists suitable for UK workplaces?

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

You can build and preview a checklist without an account. To download the PDF you'll need a free account — it takes less than a minute, costs nothing, and also lets you save checklists to your dashboard and edit them later.

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

Yes — add your company logo, colours and details on Standard and Pro plans, so the exported checklist carries your own branding. Guests and Free downloads carry Health & Safety Zone branding.

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

The exported checklist is a blank, ready-to-use document: print it and tick Yes, No or N/A against each question and write any comments in the notes space, then sign and date it in the sign-off section.

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.
