Cleaning Risk Assessment Template (Australia)

The Cleaning Risk Assessment Template is designed for cleaning businesses in Australia to systematically assess workplace health and safety (WHS) risks before, during, and after cleaning jobs. This advanced template helps identify hazards, rate risks, and decide on control measures while ensuring compliance with local regulations. Key features include: • A risk assessment cover sheet to document essential details like business name, assessment title, and client information. • A structured process for conducting risk assessments, including identifying hazards, rating risks, and implementing controls. • A master cleaning risk register for tracking specific site hazards and required controls. • Prompts and guidelines for various cleaning-specific hazards such as slips, trips, falls, and chemical exposure. • A stop-work and escalation rules section to ensure safety protocols are followed. This template not only aids in compliance but also enhances quoting accuracy, protects workers, and demonstrates a professional safety management system to clients and regulators.
