Gym Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Log

About this document

What it’s for

Gym equipment that is poorly maintained causes serious injuries. Under health and safety law you must maintain work equipment in good repair, and you owe a duty of care to members. Regular, recorded checks and a clear process for taking faulty equipment out of use are your best protection – and your main evidence if a claim is made.

When to use it

  • Daily opening checks by duty staff
  • Weekly and monthly checks by a nominated person
  • When servicing contractors visit, and whenever a fault is reported

What’s inside

The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.

  • Part 1 – Fault and out-of-use procedure
  • Part 2 – Daily opening checks
  • Part 3 – Weekly and monthly checks
  • Part 4 – Fault log
  • Part 5 – Asset register and service record

How to complete it

  • List each piece of equipment in the asset register (Part 5)
  • Use the check sheets each day, week and month, and record faults in the fault log
  • Keep records for at least [three] years

Key points to check

  • Follow manufacturers’ instructions for checks and servicing intervals
  • Lifting equipment used by staff (such as hoists) may need thorough examination under LOLER
