If an incident has occurred and has been managed correctly with follow up actions reporting, investigation and preventative measures assessed and applied this is an OFI but does not deduct a score. Mark as non conformance if incident was reasonably foreseeable/due to poor management or where no suitable actions have been take to report, record or prevent reoccurrence.
Protection/Appearances/Access to site (working area) safe and sufficient (third parties, other building users, clients, public)? Is there adequate signage?
Work at heights/Trip/Slip/Fall Hazard eliminated or controlled, safe working practices?
Access equipment / scaffolding / platforms / edge protection / suitability of equipment (justification for ladders) / falling object protection?
Are Routes/Walkways/Housekeeping/Materials clear?
Plant, Machinery & Lifting Equipment/ Appliances / Lifting Operations (Test Certification)?
Are hand tools, power tools, workplaces, workbenches cutting/mixing stations safe and suitable?
Fire appliances/fire alarm systems/procedures/drills/signage?
PPE/RPE Compliance by all contractors?
General and task specific, appropriate to the nature of the work and anticipate hazards. Close fitting RPE must be FFFP3 minimum (for particulates) and face fitted. Harnesses require harness training, registers, user checks and formal inspections (usual frequency 6 months, 3months for scaffolders).
As suitable arrangements in place for Pedestrian Routes / Traffic Routes / Street Works Management / Deliveries? (Segregations/Signage etc)
Are their sufficient lighting levels and controls on electricity and other services (gas,oil,data)?
Lighting should be consistent throughout the space with adequate levels for the work being carried out.
Management, Control, Permits, Inspections, Registers and safe working practices in Confined Spaces/Excavations/Temporary Works?
An assessment should have been made to decide if a TWC needs to be appointed. MTS, scaffolds built to BS12811/TG20 (less than 50m unsheathed 25m sheeted), standard trench boxing may not need a TWC or specific design but still need to be registered and inspected. However specialist scaffolds, hoists, catadecks, propping, shoring, large formwork of falsework should be designed and where there are a number of temporary works or overlapping forces applied to temporary works then a TWC should be appointed, registers drawn up and inspections undertaken.
Other Hazards?

Hot or warm and cold running water to be provided. Must have water close to the toilets. Sufficient number of toilets (1 stall per 25 min). Rest area and place to prepare (heat)food and boil water. Charging facilities if required, drying room if needed.

Sufficient first aiders, 1x full FAAW trained for every 50 people, for low risk activities it could be an emergency first aider or appointed person. Available at all times, 1st aid kits should be accessible, regularly checked with content appropriate to the nature of works and risk (eye wash, defibrillator, splints, burns kit - if assessed to be relevant). The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all construction sites to have: a first aid box with enough equipment to cope with the number of workers on site, an appointed person to take charge of first-aid arrangements & information telling workers the name of the appointed person or first aider and where to find them. A notice in the site office or notice board is a good way of doing this

Guideline to the scoring matrix

BP = Best practice (Excellent standard above industry standard - should be shared within business)
Conformance = Reaches company standards
Observation (Opportunity for Improvement - OFI)= Does not present an immediate risk to safety but requires improvement
Non-Conformance = Does not comply with legislative requirements or company policy - Requires action within prescribed timeframe

Guide to scoring
10. = Best practice' approach to H&S. Consistent Exceptional Standards -Going above & beyond company policy, taking initiative / lead to promote H&S / should be shared with the rest of the business
9. = Meets company policy / Deemed to be safe, legally compliant and conforms with company policy and practice. - A high Standard of safety and health management
1-8 = Concerns / Improvement action required
0. = Uncontrolled Risks / No Safe System of Work (SSOW)

90- 100. = Exceptional / Excellent consistent industry leading approach to health and safety
80-89. = Good safe systems of work and meets company expectations
60-79. = May be generally good but several areas of improvement of unsafe practices were observed or witnessed - A better more active approach to H&S / contractor control is required
<60. = Standards well below company requirements in more than one area.
