I don't really have a specific inspection form for each pallet, seeing as that would require you to have some form of tracking program for them, but I do have a policy on what to use that is in conjunction with other checklists that include glass/wood & general housekeeping. As well employees being able to demonstrate on the floor knowledge of what is acceptable and what is not. Also what to do with the ones deemed unacceptable.
Departments:
All
Objective:
To prevent the contamination of product from wood.
1. Various food and types of packaging are delivered into the warehouse on wooden pallets. All pallets must be in good condition at the time of delivery. Suppliers are encouraged to use a suitable layer pad for extra protection between pallet and product.
2. Wooden pallets must be kept in designated storage areas of the factory wherever practicable.
3. Pallets within the warehouse must be maintained in good condition.
4. Pallets must not have loose, damaged or missing boards or blocks
5. Pallets must not have any misaligned, split or tiered blocks
6. Wood must not be treated with tainted chemicals
7. Pallets must not have any protruding nails
8. Pallets must not have any large or protruding splinters or sharp edges
9. Pallets must not have any off odours or physical contamination
10. All loose, trailing shrink / stretch wrap must be removed
11. Pallets must not have any infestations
12. All pallets must be visually clean and dry.
13. The use of wooden implements within the factory is not permitted.

Is there already a checklist that you preform where that could just be added, like a pre-op for example where you are walking around checking the floors/walls for cleanliness or damage? Or a glass register that could include misc wooden items?

Hello,
I have this covered as a visually inspection under the foreign material control policy. Here are a couple of snippets from it.
PROCEDURES
Hope that helps.

This is what we have in our Foreign Material Control Procedure for key qualities to look for when inspecting wooden pallets:
*Pallets should be in good structural condition - no broken slats, runners, or nails protruding.
*Pallets should be clean, dry and free of visible stains or discoloration, and not have excessive saw dust or other filth on them.
*Pallets should not have any off odors, visible mold growth or other signs of contamination.
*Pallets should not have any visible evidence of pest activity.
*Pallets must be received on an enclosed trailer.
Hope this helps.
