Free Hazard Register Template

A free Excel register for recording and following up hazards in your workplace. Each hazard gets a risk rating before controls, the controls agreed using the hierarchy of controls, an owner and due date, and a residual risk rating, with overdue controls highlighted.

Use it with our Free Hazard Report Form, Hazard Management Policy.
