Site and construction

Permits, method statements, diaries and inspection registers for building sites, yards and anywhere work is done under control.

These are the highest-stakes sheets on this site, so they are the blankest. No permit here prints a control measure, a limit, a gas reading or a duration; no inspection sheet prints a pass criterion, a load or an interval. All of those have to come from a competent assessment of the actual job, the manufacturer or the designer — a printed default is exactly the thing somebody would tick past. Who may authorise and do this work, what training they need and what must be recorded differ by country and by workplace. Nothing here names or satisfies any scheme, standard or regulation.

Sheets in Site and construction

Permit to Work

Put a controlled job in writing: what is being done, what has to be true before it starts, who is covered and when it was handed back.

SI-01 2 pages

Hot Work Permit

Control work that makes heat, flame or sparks, and record the after-check that catches the fire that starts once everyone has gone home.

SI-02 2 pages

Confined Space Entry Permit

Force the rescue arrangements to be written down and in place before anybody enters, alongside the isolation and testing for this specific space.

SI-03 2 pages

Method Statement

Set out how a job will actually be done in sequence, with the controls written against the step they belong to rather than in a block nobody reads.

SI-04 2 pages

Site Diary

Record a day on site while it is happening, because delay, weather and verbal instructions all become arguments later and are trivial to note now.

SI-05 2 pages

Toolbox Talk Record

Record a short on-site briefing and, more usefully, what the people listening raised in response to it.

SI-06 1 page

Scaffold Inspection Record

Keep a dated inspection history for one scaffold, with findings and the action taken recorded beside each inspection.

SI-07 1 page

Temporary Works Register

Give every piece of propping, shoring, falsework or edge protection an owner and four dated signatures, so nothing is loaded or struck on an assumption.

SI-08 1 page

Near Miss Report Form

Capture the things that nearly went wrong, in a form that asks what happened rather than who was at fault.

SI-10 1 page

Manual Handling Assessment

Assess one lifting or carrying task properly, including the question people skip: whether it has to be moved by hand at all.

SI-11 1 page

PPE Issue Record

Record what protective equipment was issued to whom and when it was replaced, with the instruction and fit-check noted at the point of issue.

SI-12 1 page

Variation and Extra Works Sheet

Record a change to a job at the moment it is agreed, priced and signed, instead of arguing about it at the end when nobody's account matches.

SI-14 2 pages
