COSHH Checker — Do Your Assessments Cover What They Should?
Check whether your COSHH assessments contain the detail that assessors look for across all major pre-qualification schemes.
What COSHH Assessments Must Cover
Common Missing Elements in COSHH Assessments
Generic substance list with no detail
A list of products without hazard data or control measures is not a COSHH assessment.
No control hierarchy applied
COSHH requires you to consider elimination, substitution, and engineering controls before PPE.
Missing PPE specification
"Wear gloves" is not acceptable — the type, standard, and reason must be specified.
Unsigned or undated assessment
Assessors cannot confirm the document is current or authorised without a date and signature.
Why COSHH Matters for Contractors
COSHH assessments are required by all major schemes for contractors who use or are exposed to hazardous substances. This is especially important for painters, roofers, flooring contractors, gas engineers, and anyone using solvents, adhesives, dusts, or fumes. The scan checks your documents for substance lists, control measures, PPE specifications, and signatory/date evidence.
