Every self-employed person in the UK needs this

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, every self-employed person whose work could pose a risk to themselves or others is legally required to have health and safety documentation in place.

This is not a large-business requirement. It applies to sole traders, one-person businesses, home studios, and mobile workers equally. The size of your business does not change the legal obligation.

Sole traders and one-person businesses Working alone does not exempt you. If you use chemicals or see clients, the obligations apply in full.
Mobile and home-based workers Working from home or visiting clients does not reduce your compliance requirements - it often adds to them.
Chair renters and freelancers Renting a chair or working as a freelancer through a third party does not transfer your compliance obligations to them.
New businesses and established ones Whether you started last month or have been trading for years, you need documentation in place.

Why mobile mechanics need a specific risk assessment

Working under vehicles is the highest-risk activity in most mobile mechanic work. A vehicle that is improperly supported for underside work can crush a mechanic with fatal consequences. The risk assessment must address how vehicles are safely elevated and supported, what equipment is used, how vehicle stability is checked before going underneath, and what the procedure is in the event of vehicle movement during underside work. || Working at roadside, in car parks, and on driveways creates variable environment risks - uneven ground, traffic proximity, and working in weather conditions that affect the safety of both the mechanic and the vehicle being worked on. Lone working in these settings also creates safety considerations. || These are specific to mobile mechanic work and absent from generic trade templates.

The real problem

Mobile mechanic risk assessments rarely address vehicle support safety adequately

Working under an improperly supported vehicle is one of the most serious occupational risks in automotive work. The risk assessment must specifically address how vehicles are supported and what checks are carried out before underside work begins. This element is frequently absent from mobile mechanic documentation. CompliantDocs generates documentation that addresses this from your answers.
