Equipment findings
Report visible defects against the bar or equipment reference.
Closing handover
Pass unresolved premises work to the next shift lead.
ONE FINDING. A CLEAR NEXT STEP.
The detail reaches the person who can act.
At opening, a loose trim is found on a staff-area counter. The team records the bar position and a clear observation, keeps the affected position out of use under the pub procedure and informs the shift lead.
The duty lead assigns the repair and carries the restriction into the evening handover. The later outcome is recorded beside the original finding.

FROM YOUR PROCEDURE TO THEIR PHONE
Start with one routine, then expand.
Choose a routine your team already uses. Add its questions, locations and instructions, agree the assigned role and due time, then practise recording a finding and reviewing it with a manager. Link relevant guides or staff learning so the procedure stays beside the work. Review the first week before adding more routines.
Keep licensing, age-verification, cash management, food-safety plans and specialist cellar or equipment procedures in the systems approved for those purposes. These examples organise operational records; they do not establish legal compliance.
Before you choose your checklist software
Compare digital checklist software around a real team routine, including the staff phone experience, findings and manager follow-up.
Can we use our existing checklists?
Yes. Configure questions, instructions and assignments around your organisation’s procedures. Keep a routine focused on a particular area or responsibility, rather than putting the whole site into one long checklist.
How do managers see missed work and faults?
Managers review submitted routines and exceptions, inspect the actual answers and evidence, and assign follow-up. Missing work and failed answers have different meanings and should be reviewed separately.
Can we review records across shifts?
Yes. Use the manager workspace and reporting views to inspect dates, people and findings. Export the appropriate PDF or Excel record for your authorised operational review.
What systems should we keep?
Keep licensing, age-verification, cash management, food-safety plans and specialist cellar or equipment procedures in the systems approved for those purposes. These examples organise operational records; they do not establish legal compliance.
