Are all your operatives trained for the tasks they're doing?
Including mandatory tickets — CSCS, CPCS, asbestos awareness, working-at-height etc.
How often do you run toolbox talks or briefings?
A short, focused safety briefing on a specific topic or hazard.
Equipment — lifting kit, scaffolding, plant — when was it last inspected?
LOLER inspections, PUWER checks, scaffold weekly inspections.
How do you check PPE compliance on site?
Hard hats, hi-vis, safety boots, gloves, eye protection, RPE where required.
Are risk assessments in place for the work currently happening?
Suitable and sufficient — task-specific, not a generic one filed and forgotten.
For high-risk tasks — hot works, confined space, working at height — do you use permits?
A permit-to-work formalises the planning and authorisation for higher-risk activities.
How are accidents and near-misses recorded?
Both formal accidents AND the near-misses that nearly went badly.
Do you know what needs reporting under RIDDOR?
Specified injuries, over-7-day incapacities, occupational diseases, dangerous occurrences.
Walking around your site right now, what would you see?
Honest answer — no judgement.
Welfare on site — toilets, washing, drinking water, rest area.
Required under Schedule 2 of the CDM regulations.

Why these five areas?
Most construction-site H&S problems boil down to one of five things: the people, the equipment, the planning, the paper trail, or the place itself. Strong sites are strong across all five — weak sites usually have one obvious gap that lets the others down. Scoring by area shows you exactly where to focus. There’s no point investing in fancy permit-to-work software if your operatives aren’t trained to follow it; equally, the best-trained team in the world can’t work safely if the welfare facilities are non-existent.
The scoring is deliberately strict — full marks means “exemplary, would-show-an-HSE-inspector”, not “good enough”. That’s why a 70% score is genuinely good, and 80%+ is exceptional. If you score lower than you expected, that’s the tool doing its job: surfacing the gaps you can fix before they cost you.
