You're probably here because…
  • Your GC is asking for the OSHA safety document pack before mobilization.
  • Your JHA + site safety plan are inconsistent with each other.
  • An OSHA inspection is coming and your documentation is thin.
  • You need a Cal/OSHA variant with IIPP references for California work.
What to add to the box

What Riskora builds for this safety document

Every section is built around your actual scope of work and the framework this page is about — not boilerplate. You confirm what applies to the site before you issue it.

Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)

OSHA 3071 structured JHA — steps, hazards, controls, PPE.

Site-specific safety plan

Project-level plan referencing 29 CFR 1926 requirements.

Toolbox talks

Pre-shift briefs the crew actually reads and signs.

Permits

Hot work, confined space, LOTO, energized work permits.

Emergency Action Plan

Alignment with 1910.38 / 1926.35 — first aid, muster, reporting.

Sign-off + toolbox register

Competent person sign-off + crew signed on.

Example output

A site-ready safety document, ready to review

See how Riskora shapes your brief into a safety document your reviewer will accept — every section structured, edit anything before you issue it.

Not a blank template

Not a template. Not loose AI prose. A structured safety document.

Most 'safety document template' downloads are blank docs you still have to fill in, and generic AI tools produce loose prose a competent reviewer will bin. Riskora produces a structured safety document — with the sections the relevant framework expects — from a brief you can paste in under a minute.

Inside the document

What your JHA actually contains

Riskora builds a structured, client-facing document — not a generic AI paragraph. Every section is shaped around your job, your site and your team.

  • Hazards

    Task-specific hazards for the job, captured row by row — not a generic list pulled from an old JHA.

  • Controls

    Control measures mapped to each hazard with residual risk scoring after controls are applied.

  • PPE

    PPE requirements tied to the activity and site, ready to brief to the team.

  • Method steps

    Step-by-step method statement structured around how the work is actually sequenced on site.

  • Emergency arrangements

    First aid, rescue plan, emergency contacts and site-specific escalation routes.

  • COSHH prompts

    Substance prompts when the work involves chemicals, dusts, fumes or sealants — flagged early, not missed at review.

  • Sign-off

    Operative sign-off captured against the document — names, dates and acknowledgement of the brief.

  • Version history

    Every change tracked so you can show what was issued, when, and which version the team signed.

  • Approval status

    Clear approval state on every document — draft, in review, approved, issued — visible across the team.

  • Audit trail

    Who created it, who reviewed it, who signed it. A complete trail you can hand to a principal contractor or auditor.

Before & after

From copied-and-pasted to site-specific

The reason JHA get rejected is rarely the format — it's that the document is obviously generic. Riskora rebuilds it around this job, this site and this task.

Before

Generic template copied from an old job.

  • • Hazards and controls that don't match this site or task.
  • • Method steps written for a different sequence of work.
  • • No emergency arrangements specific to the location.
  • • Client flags it as generic and asks for a rewrite.
After

Site-specific document structured around this job, site and task.

  • • Hazards captured from the actual scope you pasted in.
  • • Method steps sequenced for how the work runs on site.
  • • Emergency arrangements and rescue plan tied to the location.
  • • Approved internally, briefed to the team, signed off and stored.
