Cleaning Risk Assessment Template (Canada)

This Cleaning Risk Assessment Template is designed for Canadian cleaning businesses to effectively evaluate job-site hazards and implement necessary safety measures. It provides a structured approach to assess risks associated with various cleaning jobs, including residential, commercial, and medical-adjacent environments. Key features include: • A clear risk rating method using a 1-5 scoring model to evaluate likelihood and consequence of hazards. • A comprehensive checklist for pre-assessment of site conditions, ensuring all potential risks are identified and addressed. • Sections for recording specific chemical hazards, required PPE, and controls necessary for safe cleaning operations.

The template also emphasizes the importance of customizing the assessment based on local occupational health and safety regulations. It includes a worker briefing and sign-off sheet to ensure all team members are aware of site hazards and safety protocols. By using this template, cleaning businesses can maintain a defensible safety record and enhance their operational safety standards.
