Without knowing where you operate can not offer any specific information. However, from the standpoint of legal accountability prior to flight, that should be listed in the aviation regulations you operate under. Under the FAA, the person who is accountable varies depending on the type of operation (Part 91 vs Part 135) and the specific rules they follow.
As for a checklist, the H130 should have this in the Rotorcraft Flight Manual listed under "Pre-flight Check."
