A little structure.
A more confident shift.
A short walkaround helps the person opening a site see whether everyday controls are in place. Use this record to document what was observed, where a hazard was found and who will resolve it.
Make it specific to your site.
Choose the areas to inspect from your site risk assessment. Add any task-specific checks and identify the person authorised to restrict access or stop unsafe work.

How to use the downloaded checklist
Open the CSV in your spreadsheet app. Adapt the checks, enter your approved criteria and add any missing site requirements. Use the result, action, owner, due date and verification columns to document follow-up.
Keep the original observation when a check fails. Record the corrective action and verification separately so the full sequence remains clear.
