Cold Conditions Risk Assessment Form

The Cold Conditions Risk Assessment Form is for businesses where workers face low temperatures. It helps identify and mitigate the risks of working in cold conditions.

It covers environmental conditions such as extreme weather, the work location (in water, remote), plant, machinery and equipment, worker factors that affect susceptibility to cold stress, and the hours per shift and temperature ranges, each with example control measures to replace or add to.

It suits construction companies, warehousing and logistics businesses, food processing and cold storage facilities, outdoor event organisers, and any organisation with workers exposed to cold environments.
