HSE COSHH Assessment Form Template

This COSHH assessment template was based on the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and was converted using Lumiform. Start by listing chemical hazards and substances present in the workplace.

Provide details of their usage and the people who may be exposed. Next record information on how the substance could cause harm and how much of the substance will be used for the job. Record Workplace Exposure Limits (WELs) and emergency procedures set by the management.

Next, complete the information about the methods of prevention or control of exposure. Lastly, provide an overall rating of the assessment and affix a digital signature to validate the audit.
