Who uses this form
Supervisors, technicians and small business teams can use the form during a task review or safety discussion. It helps document that discussion; it does not replace training, competent supervision or site-specific safety procedures.
What to record
Describe the job and work area, then break the activity into practical steps. For each step, identify the hazard and describe how it will be controlled. Record isolation arrangements, protective equipment and who is responsible for checking that the controls are in place.
A clear record, on paper or on your phone
Download the blank US Letter PDF if you prefer a paper checklist. Date fields are labeled MM/DD/YYYY, and each reading includes its unit. On a phone, start with the same form and review the questions before using it on a real visit. You can edit your copy to match the equipment, location and procedures you actually use. Keep observations specific: a short note describing what you saw is more useful than a vague statement that everything was checked.
Photos, signatures and a readable PDF
Add photos that show the item and the relevant finding clearly. Photo stamps can retain the capture time and location when permission is granted. Record corrective action alongside the observation, then obtain the appropriate signature. Open the form online first to prepare it for offline work; saved work syncs when you reconnect with the app open. Free PDFs use Classic style and the JobForms badge. Paid plans add branding, automatic customer emails and all four PDF styles.
