Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)
Identify and eliminate job hazards before they cause injuries with systematic hazard analysis that turns safety awareness into proactive risk control.
Everything a proactive JHA program needs
Why job hazard analysis matters
From safety awareness to proactive risk control
We know that many workplace injuries occur because hazards weren’t identified before work began. Our Job Hazard Analysis software helps you systematically break down work tasks, identify potential hazards, and implement controls before workers are exposed. Whether you call it JHA, JSA (Job Safety Analysis), or Task Hazard Analysis, our platform makes it easy to create, share, and maintain effective hazard analyses that actually prevent injuries rather than just checking a compliance box.

Guided JHA Creation Process
Create comprehensive job hazard analyses with our step-by-step builder that guides you through task breakdown, hazard identification, and control measure selection.
Our intelligent prompts help teams identify hazards they might otherwise miss, ensuring thorough analysis without requiring safety expertise.
Template Library and Reusable JHAs
Build a library of reusable job hazard analyses for common tasks, eliminating the need to start from scratch every time while maintaining consistency.
Start with pre-built templates for common jobs or create your own custom templates that can be easily modified for specific situations.
Mobile Access for Field Teams
Provide workers with instant access to relevant JHAs before starting work, with mobile-friendly formats that are easy to read and understand in the field.
Conduct JHA reviews and pre-job briefings directly from mobile devices, capturing worker sign-offs and feedback right at the work location.
Integration with Work Permits and Procedures
Link JHAs to work permits, procedures, and work orders to ensure hazard analysis is conducted and reviewed before high-risk work begins.
Create seamless workflows where JHA review becomes an automatic part of work authorization rather than a separate, easily-skipped step.
Continuous Improvement and Updates
Keep JHAs current and relevant with systematic review processes, incident-triggered updates, and worker feedback mechanisms.
Transform JHAs from static documents into living tools that evolve based on actual experience and changing conditions.
Reporting and Compliance Documentation
Generate comprehensive reports that demonstrate your proactive approach to hazard identification and control, supporting both internal safety goals and regulatory compliance.
Show management and regulators that you’re systematically identifying and controlling hazards before they cause injuries.
Built for your environment
Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) for Industries
Construction
Analyze hazards for every construction task from excavation to roofing. Ensure subcontractors perform JHAs and brief workers before beginning high-risk activities.
Manufacturing
Identify and control hazards in production processes, equipment maintenance, and material handling. Use JHAs for both routine operations and non-routine tasks.
Oil & Gas
Conduct comprehensive hazard analysis for well operations, pipeline work, and facility maintenance. Integrate JHAs with permit-to-work systems for high-hazard activities.
Utilities
Analyze hazards for line work, substation maintenance, and system repairs. Ensure crews understand hazards before working on energized systems or in challenging conditions.
Healthcare
Identify hazards in patient handling, clinical procedures, and facility maintenance. Protect healthcare workers from both patient care hazards and traditional workplace risks.
Warehousing & Distribution
Analyze hazards in material handling, loading operations, and equipment use. Reduce injuries from the most common warehouse hazards.
