FIND OUT WHAT A CONTRACTOR ACTUALLY EXPECTS BEFORE YOUR CREW SHOWS UP ON THEIR SITE

What you get

  • A fillable PDF - check Yes or No on every question and type your company representative's information directly into the form
  • 11 numbered questions covering health and safety contacts, site inspections, hazard reporting, job procedures, site-specific rules and PPE, emergency response, orientation, training, safety meetings, and incident reporting/investigation
  • Space under each 'No' answer to record why, so a gap in the other party's safety program is documented, not just noted
  • A sign-off section naming the organization being contracted to, with representative name, signature, and date
  • Your company logo added to the form, at no extra charge

How to fill it out and keep it. Open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) or a desktop browser like Chrome or Edge, then use that program's own Save or Download button, not just closing the tab, so your entries are kept in the saved copy. On a phone, most PDF apps will let you view the form but not type into it - fill it out on a computer, or print it and use a pen.

Why crews use it

  • Getting these answers in writing before work starts means your crew knows the other party's rules, PPE requirements, and emergency procedures ahead of time, not on day one
  • A 'No' answer with a required explanation surfaces a genuine gap in the other party's safety program instead of letting a bare checkbox hide it
  • Covers the full pre-work relationship - contacts, inspections, procedures, PPE, emergency response, orientation, training, meetings, and incident reporting - in one document instead of scattered emails
  • Signed and dated, so there's a record of what was disclosed and when, if a disagreement comes up later

Built for

  • Companies contracting work to another organization who need that organization's safety expectations in writing beforehand
  • Safety coordinators standardising a pre-work due diligence questionnaire across multiple contractors or client sites
  • Anyone who has been caught off guard by site-specific rules that only surfaced after work had already started

Why it matters

Most disputes about who was responsible for a safety gap trace back to an assumption nobody actually confirmed - who provides PPE, whether there's a specific evacuation procedure, who gets notified when a hazard is fixed. This questionnaire forces those assumptions into a written Yes or No answer before the work begins, not after something goes wrong.

Common questions

Before you buy

What people ask us about the Contracting Questionnaire.

What is the Contracting Questionnaire used for?

An 11-question contracting questionnaire that gets a contractor's own safety expectations in writing before work starts - contact person, site rules, PPE, emergency procedures, and incident reporting, each a Yes/No answer with room to explain a No - delivered as a real fillable PDF. Who uses it: Companies contracting work to another organization who need that organization's safety expectations in writing beforehand; Safety coordinators standardising a pre-work due diligence questionnaire across multiple contractors or client sites; Anyone who has been caught off guard by site-specific rules that only surfaced after work had already started.

Can we fill it in on a computer, or is it print-only?

Both. It is a fillable PDF, so every field can be typed into on a laptop or tablet and saved, or you can print it blank and fill it in by hand. Your company logo is added at no extra charge.

Does using this form make us compliant?

No single form makes a company compliant. A form is the evidence half of a safety program - it records that something was checked and by whom. It carries weight at audit time when the written program behind it says the check is required and how often. If that program does not exist yet, that is the part we write.

When do I get it?

Immediately after checkout as a download, and you can re-download it any time from your purchases page. Print or fill in as many copies as your own crews need.

From the team that wrote it

These forms come from a bigger program.

Inspection and competency forms are the evidence half of a safety program. If the program they belong to does not exist yet, or has not been updated in a few years, that is the part we write.
