What it covers

The building walk-through checks.

How often: monthly

Safety

  • Test emergency lighting and exit signs
  • Check fire extinguishers are charged and in date
  • Check fire doors close and latch
  • Keep escape routes clear

Building

  • Check for roof or ceiling leaks and stains
  • Check doors, locks and closers
  • Replace failed light bulbs and tubes
  • Check washrooms for leaks and running taps
  • Walk the car park and outside lighting

These are common checks to start from. Your machine’s manual and the safety rules for your site come first, so add or change checks to match them.

From the field

Tips for a better check.

  • Walk the same route each month, so nothing is skipped.
  • Photograph each leak or stain with the date, so you can see if it grows.
  • Write the floor and room in every note. "Leak, 3rd floor east stair" is quick to find.

Monthly is common for a general walk-through. Some safety items, such as emergency lighting and fire extinguishers, have their own test schedules set by local rules, so keep those dates as well.
