The Machinery Hire Checklist Form is designed to help businesses ensure that any hired plant/machinery is safe for use. Improperly maintained equipment and uninformed operators can lead to serious injury or death.
This form must be completed and signed by the supplier and the supervisor before the plant/machinery can be used. It ensures that the equipment is safe, and that the operator is aware of the safe and proper use of the equipment.
The checklist ensures that:
- there are current inspection and maintenance records
- the Plant Risk Assessment is available
- the person in charge of operating or erecting the plant/machinery has been instructed on the safe and proper use of it
- clear operating instructions and relevant regulatory certification requirements have been provided, and
- the plant/machinery has been inspected by a competent person.
The Machinery Hire Checklist Form is user friendly and can be easily customised. It helps to ensure that any hired equipment meets your business’ high standard for health and safety
