A pre-use inspection checklist for scaffolding on construction sites, aligned with OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart L. Covers foundations, frames and bracing, platform planking, guardrails and toeboards, access points, ties to the structure, and load capacity signage. Must be completed by a competent person before each shift.

Scaffolding violations are consistently in OSHA's top 10 most-cited standards. This inspection takes 15-20 minutes per scaffold and creates the documented evidence that OSHA expects to see during a site visit.
