Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) SOP Template

$39.00

Inconsistent hazard analysis leads to missed risks and preventable incidents. You cannot rely on ad-hoc inspections; you need a defined standard.

Standardize your site's approach to non-routine tasks with this fully editable JHA Procedure. This framework defines exactly when a JHA is required, who leads it, and how to calculate risk scores using a defensible matrix.

Key Features:

  • Mandatory Triggers: Clearly defines when a JHA must be performed (New tasks, infrequent work, or post-incident).

  • Risk Logic: Includes a pre-built 3x3 Risk Assessment Matrix (Severity x Likelihood) to calculate Initial vs. Residual Risk.

  • Go/No-Go Criteria: Establishes strict "Stop Work" authority rules for High and Medium residual risks.

  • Roles Defined: Explicit responsibilities for Supervisors, Leads, and Workers.

  • The Procedure: 5-Page Standard Operating Procedure (.docx) covering scope, responsibilities, and execution.

  • The Matrix: Embedded "Severity & Likelihood" definitions and Risk Score Mapping tables.

  • The Workflow: Step-by-step instructions from Team Assembly to Post-Work Filing.

FAQs

  • This is designed for "System Builders"—Safety Coordinators and Site Leaders who need to move from "pencil-whipping" forms to a documented, defensible risk management process.

  • Yes. You will receive a Microsoft Word (.docx) file. You can customize the header, logo, and specific risk definitions to match your facility's reality.

  • The SOP uses a semi-quantitative approach (Risk Score = Severity x Likelihood). It forces teams to calculate "Initial Risk" before controls and "Residual Risk" after controls, ensuring the Hierarchy of Controls is actually applied.
