The housekeeping checklist is used to inspect various areas of the workplace and identify any issues that require attention. It covers inspection of floors, aisles, exits, waste disposal, protective equipment, electrics, fire safety, ventilation, dangerous goods, vehicles, and compressed gases. For each item, the inspector indicates whether the area meets standards or needs action, and records details of any required actions, responsible parties, and deadlines. The general comments section allows the inspector to note any additional observations.
