Create a JHA

Before you create a JHA, ensure you have configred and set up JHAs properly: Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) – Overview & Enabling JHAs

Navigate to:
Timecard → Create or Edit → JHA


Step-by-Step

1. Select Crew & Job

  • Choose employees and project
  • Project info auto-populates

2. Review PPE

  • Default PPE appears
  • Add additional items if needed (typed entry)

3. Add Safety Considerations
Examples:

  • Work at height
  • Heavy equipment nearby
  • Trenching
  • Electrical work

4. Select Work Category & Tasks
Example:

  • Category: Concrete
  • Tasks: Forming, Pouring, Finishing

5. Identify Hazards & Controls

  • System filters options based on selected task
  • You can:
    • Select from existing items
    • Add new ones (saved at project level)

6. Add Crew & Signatures

  • Crew members acknowledge the JHA
  • Crew lead signs as the competent person

7. Submit JHA

  • Finalizes the record
  • Sends to distribution list
  • Available in reporting

Important Behavior to Understand

JHAs Must Be Created Daily

  • JHAs cannot be cloned or copied
  • This ensures crews actively review safety conditions each day

Multiple JHAs Per Day

  • If work scope changes (e.g., new task), create a new JHA

Create Items On-the-Fly

  • Missing hazard or control? Add it directly during creation
  • Saved as a project-level item

Best Practices

  • Complete JHAs at the start of each day
  • Review hazards as a team before beginning work
  • Use the upload template for initial setup
  • Keep categories and tasks simple and clear
  • Avoid overloading with unnecessary options
  • Create a new JHA when work scope changes
