About this template
Complete this site risk assessment before an elevating work platform (EWP) is used on a job, and again when the site, the machine or the task changes. Seven worked rows show how to score the main EWP hazards, and blank rows are ready for your own. It points to the licence, power line and rescue rules, and leaves wind and slope limits to the manufacturer.

If it doesn't match its description or has a fault, we'll fix it, and if we can't, we'll refund you (or give you store credit if you'd prefer). Check the sample pages first, as we don't refund a change of mind.
