Evaluate workplace hazards tied to chemical handling, storage, and exposure with this chemical risk assessment template. It offers a reliable, audit-ready way to document substances used on site, assess associated risks, and apply control measures such as PPE, ventilation, or substitution. Whether you’re working in manufacturing, laboratories, or logistics, this tool brings structure and compliance to your safety process.

According to the International Labour Organization (ILO), unsafe working conditions cause over 2.7 million deaths globally each year, and nearly 1 million are linked to hazardous substance exposure. With such high stakes, a dedicated assessment for chemical risks is critical. For related assessments, our template library also includes COSHH or HSE risk assessment forms.

Frequently asked questions

When is a chemical risk assessment required?

You need one any time employees are exposed to potentially harmful chemicals, including during manufacturing, cleaning, storage, or transport. You’re also legally required to reassess risks whenever new substances are introduced, processes change, or accidents occur involving chemicals.

What hazards are considered in a chemical risk assessment?

It includes health hazards like skin irritation, cancer, or breathing issues, and physical hazards such as flammability, explosions, or reactivity. It also accounts for how chemicals are stored, labeled, used, and disposed of, as well as potential environmental impacts.

What information do you need before starting a chemical risk assessment?

You’ll need up-to-date Safety Data Sheets (SDS), details on how each substance is used, stored, and disposed of, the number of employees exposed, current control measures, and any previous incidents or health complaints related to chemical use.

How do you control chemical risks after assessing them?

Control measures may include using less harmful substances, installing proper ventilation, using PPE, providing staff training, and improving storage practices. The goal is to apply the hierarchy of control, starting with elimination or substitution and only relying on PPE as a last resort.
