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
Category
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
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

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
Lifting Equipment Inspection Register
Keep track of what lifting gear you hold, what each item is marked at, and when each was last examined.
SI-09 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-12 1 page

SI-14 2 pages
Retention and Final Account Sheet
Track what a job finished at and, more importantly, when the money still being held falls due to come back.

One new sheet, most weeks
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
