Chemical Risk Assessment Template – Editable MS Word Documents
Chemical risk assessments are a structured process used to identify chemical hazards, evaluate exposure risks, and determine appropriate control measures for the use, handling, storage, and transport of chemicals in the workplace.
The JSEAsy Chemical Risk Assessment templates are professionally developed, step-by-step documents supplied as fully editable Microsoft Word files. Each template guides users through the risk assessment process, allowing site-specific information to be entered for the chemical, task, and work environment, and supporting a consistent and defensible approach to chemical safety management.
What This Chemical Risk Assessment Covers

- Health and physical hazards
- Exposure pathways (inhalation, skin contact, ingestion)
- Quantity, frequency, and duration of use
- Storage, handling, and disposal risks
- Spill, leak, and emergency response considerations

The documents are written in clear, practical language and can be adapted to suit your site conditions, processes, and workforce.
