Why you need a JHA Log
A Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) is critical for identifying potential risks before a specific task begins. It focuses on the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools, and the work environment.
What this template includes:
- Job Step Breakdown: Space to list every step of the task.
- Hazard Identification: Columns to identify specific risks for each step (e.g., pinch points, electrical shock).
- Control Measures: A section to assign specific PPE or procedural controls to mitigate the risk.
- Sign-off Sheet: A grid for crew members to sign, acknowledging they understand the hazards.
How to use this form
- Print a copy for your Foreman or Safety Lead.
- Walk the job site before work starts.
- Fill out the steps and hazards.
- Have every crew member sign the bottom.
- Scan and file the paper document for compliance records.
