This excavation risk assessment template makes it easier to complete, share and approve risk assessments for excavations.

Excavations are one of the most dangerous and high consequence activities which take place on construction and industrial sites.

In order to mitigate the chances of potentially catastrophic events (including hitting a utility service), workers, management and safety teams engaging in excavation activities conduct excavation risk assessments.

The main purpose of these risk assessments is simple: to guarantee that the necessary precautions and actions have been taken to make it a safe excavation.

This excavation risk assessment template makes your excavation risk assessments easier and more organised. You can complete the risk assessment as part of your normal excavation safety process before it's automatically sent for approval to work. And if you want to conduct a standalone risk assessment, you can do that too by simply editing the template - which is fully customisable.

Once completed, you can download, print or share your risk assessment or keep it (and any others) safely and securely stored online where you can find and search for them easily.
