Who this template is for

Site Safety Inspection is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in construction.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 35 questions across 3 screens.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 29 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
  • It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional validation: if “Was any work stopped during this inspection?” is Yes, “What was stopped, and why” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Were the previous inspection's actions closed?” is No, “Which actions remain open” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Is scaffold in use on site?” is Yes, “Date of the last scaffold inspection” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

How is this different from a building inspection checklist?

That one inspects a building's condition. This inspects a live construction site: scaffold, excavations, plant, hot works, welfare and PPE, with actions and owners.

How often should it be done?

Frequency comes from local regulation and your own safety plan. The form asks when the next inspection is due so the cycle is visible.

Does it replace a risk assessment?

No. A risk assessment plans controls before work; this checks whether those controls exist on the ground on a given day.

Can a subcontractor complete it?

They can inspect their own work area, and the role field records who did it, but the principal contractor's own inspection should still take place.

Is the Site Safety Inspection template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Site Safety Inspection on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

What does the Site Safety Inspection template ask for?

It asks 35 questions across 3 pages, 29 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.

Can I edit the Site Safety Inspection form after copying it?

Yes — the copy is entirely yours. Change wording, add or remove questions, switch between the classic layout, restyle it to match your brand, and set who gets notified on each submission.

How does the conditional logic in this construction form work?

3 conditional rules ship with the template: Features conditional validation: if “Was any work stopped during this inspection?” is Yes, “What was stopped, and why” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent. Features conditional validation: if “Were the previous inspection's actions closed?” is No, “Which actions remain open” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent. Features conditional validation: if “Is scaffold in use on site?” is Yes, “Date of the last scaffold inspection” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent. All rules are editable in the Logic tab.

Where do responses to the Site Safety Inspection form go?

Submissions land in your workspace under Submissions, where you can search, filter, label and export them to CSV or PDF. You can also email a notification to your team on every submission and send the respondent an auto-reply.

Can I embed the Site Safety Inspection form on my own website?

Yes. Publish the form and paste the embed snippet into any page or share the direct link. The embedded form resizes to fit its container and loads no advertising or marketing trackers inside the iframe.

Can respondents upload files?

Yes. This template includes a file upload question, so respondents can attach documents or photos with their answers. You can adjust the accepted file types and size limits on that question.

Is the signature on this form legally usable?

The template captures a drawn signature and stores it with the submission, along with the timestamp, so you keep evidence of who agreed and when. Whether that is sufficient depends on your jurisdiction and the agreement itself.
