A structured inspection worksheet for adaptation after local rules are adopted. It separates observed facts, legal clauses and risk classification so advice is not presented as an enforceable violation.

Editable checklist with 34 control points, risk classes, observation fields and corrective-action records.


Risk classification
Critical
An observed condition presents or is reasonably likely to present an imminent or substantial risk of harm. Use only lawful immediate controls and verify correction.
Use the worksheet →Major
A significant control failure could materially increase risk but is not assessed as an immediate critical condition. Set a short risk-based deadline.
Use the worksheet →Routine or observation
Separate lower-risk deficiencies from non-enforceable advice. Record each finding, legal basis, action and review route clearly.
