The 50-point site check: what we look at on every visit.

The same categories we review on every site visit — so you know where you stand before an inspector decides for you. It tells you where to look. What to do about it is where we come in.

Documentation

  • Whether risk assessments are current, and whether they describe this site
  • Whether a fire risk assessment exists and when it was last reviewed
  • Which substances are in use, and whether each has a COSHH assessment
  • The date and signature on your health & safety policy

People

  • What induction training staff have actually received, and the evidence for it
  • First aid cover against the size and activity of the site
  • Whether accidents and near-misses are being recorded — and whether anyone reads them
  • Who holds which H&S responsibility, and whether they know it

Premises

  • Escape routes, exit signage, and whether anything is stored in front of them
  • Fire alarm and emergency lighting test records
  • Inspection and test records for portable equipment
  • Whether an asbestos register exists for pre-2000 buildings

Operations

  • How contractors are inducted, supervised, and signed off on site
  • Whether lone working happens, and whether anything covers it
  • Which tasks involve manual handling, and what has been assessed
  • Plant, chemical stores, and pool areas — access control and record keeping

That's a sample of four categories. The full 50-point site check is a PDF — enter your email below and we'll send it over.
