Why regular safety equipment inspections matter

Workplaces change constantly. Layouts shift, new equipment arrives, delivery patterns change, and signs, bollards and barriers wear out or get knocked out of position. A regular walk through helps you catch damaged, obstructed or outdated workplace safety equipment before it contributes to an incident.

Workplace Safety Checklist

Designed for offices, shops and general workplaces, this checklist helps you identify safety equipment that may need repair, replacement, repositioning or further assessment. It covers six areas:

1. General workplace safety equipment
2. Safety signage and visual communication
3. Bollards, barriers and impact protection
4. Pedestrian access, stairs and walkways
5. Parking, loading and vehicle areas
6. Workplace changes and final review
