One risk on its own page, from Cleaning team risk assessments

One risk, one page: tick what you have, circle a score, write the action.

How one assessment works

  1. 1

    Read the hazard

    Who is harmed and how, in plain English, with the real injury or ill-health mechanism named.

  2. 2

    Tick what you have

    The controls a good operator already runs are listed. Tick the ones you have, cross out the ones you do not.

  3. 3

    Score it

    Circle a likelihood and a severity, 1 to 5. Multiply them and read the band off the matrix.

  4. 4

    Write the action

    Anything medium or high gets what you will change, an owner and a date, on ruled lines with room to write.

  5. 5

    Add your own

    Blank pages at the end for the hazards specific to your building, scored the same way.

  6. 6

    Sign it

    Assessed by, reviewed by, next review due. Then the action plan and the review register at the back.

Good to know

Questions, answered

What is included in Cleaning team risk assessments?

13 risk assessments across 208 pages as one PDF, plus a 4-page guide on how to use them. Each assessment carries its own hazards, controls, scoring, action plan and sign-off.

Is it filled in already?

Partly, and only the part that should be. The hazards, who is harmed and how, and the controls a good operator already runs are written for you. Likelihood, severity, the rating, your further actions, owners and dates are blank, because those are the judgements the law asks you to make about your own building.

Do I need to be a health and safety professional to use it?

No. It is written so an owner, office manager or supervisor can work through it. Every hazard is one page: read it, tick the controls you already have, cross out the ones you do not, circle a likelihood and a severity, multiply them, and write what you are going to do about anything that comes out medium or high.

How do I get it, and is it kept up to date?

Everything downloads the moment you check out, and we email a copy too. No subscription. It is reviewed for August 2026, every figure is cited to its source, and you get any future update free when the guidance changes.
